I have personally installed Sugar to play with it and I find it very
amusing and nice.  Plus, I get to report bugs once in a while if
I find any.

Ummm...to me, KDE 4.1 seems quite stable at this point, and
has most of the features an average user would need.  That's just
what I think though.

I would have to agree with that!
