KDE 4 is an epic fail. Linux users were able to claim, once upon a time, about the sleekness and efficient use compared to bloat especially when comparing to Windows.
Now, especially with KDE 4, it's gone the opposite way. Also, KDE has eliminated many apps or replaced them and they aren't good replacements. KDE devs also don't seem to care about bugs as many remain way after new revisions of KDE. I am concerned about where Gnome is going, too, although with XFCE, at least there are a few alternatives left. I never used to like Gnome but KDE 4 looks like it's self-destructing as far as I'm concerned.
If you want 'light' but some easy, functional desktop stuff (more GUI options), try XFCE w/ your distro?
