Early Days with KDE 4: openSUSE 10.3, Kubuntu 8.04 and Fedora 9 compared

Arch has taught me so much and I will go back to it one day. For now, I plan to decide between three popular KDE distros - openSUSE, Kubuntu and Fedora. The desktop environment of choice? KDE 4.0.
I could have used Virtualbox but I planned to install whichever I found the best. Fortunately, I did come to a conclusion and I’ll briefly share what I can recall from using these distros.
Fedora 9 :
* Experienced a few crashes especially on logout.
* NetworkManager didn’t work for me.
* Nice wallpaper and application menu icon.
openSUSE 10.3 :
* Use of the Aya plasma theme with new artwork rocks.
* YaST uses an Oxygen icon theme which suits it.
* Firefox doesn’t look that ugly even without the gtk-qt-engine for some reason.
