KDE 4.0 beta 3 - more beautiful than ever

KDE is moving into the fast track of becoming the number one Desktop environment. And if the latest beta release (3) of KDE 4.0 is taken into consideration, 2008 could very well be the year of KDE.

KDE community has released the 3rd beta of KDE 4.0. A couple of months back, I had listed a number of new features expected in KDE 4.0. Since then KDE 4.0 has got even better and more good looking. As of now, since the last beta release, no new features are added into KDE 4.0 and it is going through a bout of bug fixing and necessary polish.

I think, when KDE 4.0 final is released in December this year, it is going to be a heck of Desktop - lean, beautiful, responsive, modular and user friendly.

Read the full news of KDE 4.0 beta 3 release on the official site.

Update : KDE 4 beta 3 release packages are available for Kubuntu. If you are a Kubuntu user then check out how you can install KDE 4 alongside KDE 3 and give it a test run.
