A review of 5 KDE3 applications which I use daily on my Debian Lenny box: BasKet, Amarok, K3b, KTorrent, Yakuake.

BasKet
This notes-taking application just might be a killer application for Linux. Some say a single application won't make a person switch from one OS to another, but I disagree. Take all those threads/comments like 'I only dual-boot because of Photoshop or GTA or you name it'. On forums I also read many threads in which the authors say they switched or tried KDE just because they like Amarok or K3b (being the only KDE application they used). Or vice-versa.

Since I've first tried it, BasKet didn't cease to amaze me with its features and functionality. The last version is 1.3.0.1 (for KDE3), but according to their roadmap, plans are to port it to KDE4. It supports global shortcuts, system tray integration, highlighting and embedding images among many others.
