I'm not Duncan but I have 5 reasons not to switch to kde4 atm.
1) Speed: I have a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ with
8GB of ram and a Radeon HD 3600 card but still kde 4.3 most of the time
feels like walking through mud.
turn of composite or install a xorg-server with the
fedora_dont_backfill_bg_none.patch and see kde fly.
...and see it produce a crapload of artifacts during window and menu
opening. Still better than a slow as molasses GUI though.
In any event though, that's hardly KDE's fault anyway. It's the crappy
Catalyst drivers from AMD (I suffer the same issues).
