Thank you to KDE!

Fri Nov 14, 2008 1:10 pm
A huge thank-you to the KDE team, without your interface, I could of never switched from Windows.

The eye candy and familiar functionality led me into the fascinating world of Linux, without your system: without your widgets and whatnot I would of stayed away from Linux, XFCE and GNOME being too strange to me.
Plus the layout is easier to navigate (I've got cerebral palsy and thus, I find it very difficult to hit small buttons, such as that on, say, the Windows system)

I would also like to thank you for working on a semantic desktop; I'm a big fan of AI-based technologies, and, well, it pleases me greatly that you're working in this direction.

Keep up the brilliant work!

To be fair to Windows, you can increase the size of all the buttons and widgets. AFAIK, you can't change the size of the style in KDE, although some who want a more compact theme may wish they could.
