Doesn't running most KDE apps actually load part or much of KDE, 
lessening any value in running KDE apps in another wm.  I used to be 
foolish enough to use my 486 with various and sundry things like 
windowmaker, nice concept but slow.  In fact, one thing I noticed was 
that NetBSD actually is faster on my 486 than Linux most of the time, I 
haven't quite figured out why.
