My most likely destination distro is Kunbuntu because of it's strong
support, good reputation and my preference for KDE.

 I downloaded the
community supported version of 8.04 that has KDE 4 as the default
desktop.  I'm curious as to it's stability.  If you have experience
with KDE 4, especially on Kubuntu, please share with all of us.  Has
it been stable?  Is it resource hungry?  Any other gotchas?  Did you
wish to go back to KDE 3.x?  Why or why not?

  I started with Kubuntu, and moved to Ubuntu.  There are far more Ubuntu users and the packages, etc. have better community support.  Unless KDE is a major req for you, I would suggest falling into the Ubuntu groove.

Thanks for any advice.
