KDE 4 and Kubuntu?

[John]

A few months ago I changed my distro to Kubuntu 8.04. I didn't care much for KDE 4.0 as I put some files and folders I use on the Desktop and I didn't like the way 4.0 handles this. It was very easy to install KDE 3.5.9 which I did and I'm now running. I, too, use Ubuntu because of the support and the amount of packages available.
