You are either trolling or are just repeating a line you heard about issues you clearly do not understand. Microsoft did not buy into SUSE or Novell. Changes to KDE are as a result of decisions made by the KDE project. Switching distros may buy you some more time, but KDE3 is going to die off sooner or later. If you don't like KDE4 then use a different desktop environment, openSUSE supports more than most other distros. > Now lets see how long it takes to port kde to microsoft. > that is having a workable desk top for windows. Anyone can port KDE or any free software to anything they like, provided they comply with the appropriate licences. Mac OSX is a proprietary OS largely based on BSD.
