KDE 4 with it’s new smooth, sleek, curvy design and stunning desktop applets make for an unforgettable user experience.

Compiz is automatically inserted into KDE 4.2 by default, letting you play with some of the sweet desktop effects.

Yesterday’s announcement says that Kwin and Plasma have been polished up quite a bit and that you can use Ruby and Python to build Plasma apps.

The K Desktop Environment is a prime example of how much of gem open source is. Inspired, driven developers are what makes open source grind.

Keep your head up for more news about a stable 4.2 release.

    Actually, those are Kwin effects, not Compiz. Although, Compiz can in fact work in KDE4.
