I do agree with you on xandros. its *verry* newbie friendly. Ubuntu is
pretty awesome as well, but I think just minorly xandros trumps it for
newbie nice. I'd suggest learning as much as possible on xandros then
'graduating' to ubuntu. Next stop: gentoo ;) ;) ;)
Anyway, I dont have a kde box at the moment, but I did find this..
