KDE 4.2 (Updates-Testing) 1st Impressions

[homburg at tips-Q.com]

In spite of all my bitching, KDE has become a stable and
usable desktop. 4.2 adds some new widgets including a great
weather app and a 3.x style quick-start which returns icons
to the panel. Folder view on the panel is now a better
"quick access" widget. There are also some new monitor
widgets. Overall 4.2 seems tighter. Quanta has now been
updated to the 4 branch. From time to time I was having
some right click inconsistency particularly with Dolphin.
That is gone. I'm sure there is much under the hood that I
haven't noticed as well as other goodies. 

A reminder that this is still in the testing repo. Thus
YMMV.
