Fedora 17 KDE Review – Linux Distro Reviews

So here is a review of the KDE under Fedora 17. Looks good.

Overall, this respin of Fedora 17 provides the same great stable base as the Gnome version, but with a very nicely unified KDE 4.8.3 Software Compilation. Complete with all of the great KDE apps, the Calligra Suite also makes a stable debut. Faster login time as well as easier – but somewhat old school – package management, Fedora 17 KDE is looking like a very worth while release. Thanks for the feedback everybody!

Unity vs Gnome Shell – Desktop Comparison

Worked hard on this one. =o) There’s been a lot of controversy around choosing Unity over Gnome 3.. || Join the chat: twitter.com || ..and many of you have requested my opinion. Since recent releases, Ubuntu has used Unity as its default desktop environment. In this week’s episode of OS.ALT I describe the important differences for you, and what the improvements found in the latest version of Unity released with Ubuntu 12.04 mean in comparison with Gnome 3. Hint: Ubuntu 12.04 really floored me, in no small part due to Unity and the HUD.
