My god man take your blinkers off.

KDE was not created by Trolltech. The QT libraries were and then a group of open source coders based KDE on these libraries.

It was the pressure created by the formation of Gnome that eventually lead Trolltech to dual license the QT libraries so they could properly be used in Free software. The fact that there are two competing desktops is down to Trolltech taking so long to do this.

Frankly I think having the two dominant desktops competing with each other is better than having just the one.

Thanks.
