I came across a (lengthy) interesting interview with one of SUSE's
cofounders Hubert Mantel:

Have a lot of Fun!

Indeed:

Over the years, technology companies that lost their original
technical leads have tended to go downhill - two cases in point are
Sun Microsystems and Microsoft.

<chuckle>

Anyway, it is noted that KDE is pretty resource hungry. I had a
Windows VM running at home on KDE, and was getting complaints that it
was slooooooow. So I logged back into Fluxbox instead, added a trifling
amount of RAM to the VM, and now I get the statement "Ah, it is fast
like before". I was surprised that worked so well.

Of course, the box is fairly old, with one of Intel's cripple-chips for
a CPU.

Another interesting thing mentioned is the tool "snapper".

I do think the interviewee is wrong about the desktop, though.
It will always be a big part of the office, no matter how few
end up using a desktop at home.

Everything you say is overshadowed by your COLA persona of liar and arse
kisser. You're a piece of work Liarmutt. You know full well I know Debian
very well and here you are sucking up to a useless prick like High Plains
Hypocrite making out I know nothing. And why? God knows. I can not recall
the last subject involving technical issues with Linux where I was wildly
incorrect or wrong. And you know it. I was right about CUPS. And you know
it. I was right about NVidia and you know it. I could go on. All High Plains
Hypocrite does is post his stupid FAQ. But I enjoy the gang bringing it on
- it's hilarious.
