I totaly agree. However I think many on this list are "experienced" computer users (I mean "old" :). We come from a time where computer ressources were scarce (few hundred KB of RAM, few Megabytes of harddisk - if any haddisk at all). What we wanted - and still look for - was efficency and stability. Modern geeks want screen effects, animations, videos instead of reading text files, "wizards" instead of learning how to do things. Any program that has not been "updated" for a few month is considered "unmaintained" on Android. So a Desktop environment that seems to have stayed the same for 10 years is for "nostalgic" people. I belong to those who are proud of knowing the value of things. I could run a "modern" DE on my computers, but why? TDE gives me everything I need, and Konqueror. The question is rather: why is it so difficult to convince others of these facts. If one main distribution included TDE, I'm sure many more people would "rediscover" why KDE 3 was good.
