My tastes in music are different than yours.

Many Slackers don't use KDE or Gnome (etc.) and wouldn't touch them with a ten
foot pole.

As well as many people who use other linux distros. And unix distros.

Yet we do run X and window managers and can do anything that can
be done with KDE, with a fraction of the system resources KDE
requires. We can do MORE.

Since that's all I've been saying, and it isn't bullshit at
all...

ODE (the Other Desktop Environment) is simply running Linux from
the command line, in the console or the X environments.

You ought to try it.
