-<title>What is &kde;?</title>
-
-<para>&kde; is a desktop environment. In other words, &kde; is a
-collection of programs, technologies and documentation that attempt to
-make life easier for computer users. &kde; is targeted at &UNIX;
-workstations. It features network transparency and a contemporary work
-philosophy. </para>
-
-<para>The creators of the K Desktop Environment are a world-wide group of
-software engineers. This group's major goal in free software development is to
-provide high quality software that empowers the user with easy control of his
-computer's resources.</para>
-
-<para>&kde; seeks to fill the need for an easy to use desktop for
-&UNIX; workstations, similar to the desktop environments found under
-&MacOS; or &Windows; 95/NT. &kde; meets the requirement
-of users for an easy to use work environment. Tools used to reach
-this end are: enhanced inter-application communication, component
-reuse, generalized drag and drop, uniform look and feel and many
-more. Thus, &kde; offers much more than the traditional &UNIX; window
-managers.</para>
-
-<para>Stability, scaleability and openness are qualities which have
-made &UNIX; the undisputed choice for the information technology
-professional for many years. &kde; builds on top of this excellent
-base framework and brings new, much needed qualities: usability, user
-friendliness and beauty! &kde; was the first, and stays the forefront
-player in bringing these qualities to &UNIX;, which constituted for
-years, the premier platform for server computers and scientific
-institutions, but wasn't very attractive for desktop users.</para>
-
-<para>Without &UNIX; the Internet would not exist, or at least would
-have a vastly different form. &UNIX; has not, until now, addressed the
-needs of the average computer user. This fact is particularly
-unfortunate, since a number of implementations of &UNIX; (<ulink
-url="http://www.linux.org">&Linux;</ulink>, <ulink
-url="http://www.freebsd.org">FreeBSD</ulink>, <ulink
-url="http://www.netbsd.org">NetBSD</ulink>, etc) are freely
-available on the Internet, all of which are of exceptional quality and
-stability. </para>

-<sect1 id="what-is-kde-the-desktop">
-<title>&kde; The Desktop Environment</title>
-
-<para>In combination with a free implementation of &UNIX;, &kde;
-provides to the world an open and completely free desktop computing
-platform either at home or at work.</para>
-
-<para> This platform is available to anyone free of charge including
-its source code for anyone to modify.</para>
-
-<para>While there will always be room for improvement we believe we
-have now delivered a viable alternative to some of the more commonly
-found and commercial operating systems/desktops combinations available
-today. It is our hope that the combination of &UNIX; and &kde; will
-finally bring the same open, reliable, stable, and monopoly free
-computing to the average computer user that scientists and computing
-professionals world-wide have enjoyed for years. </para>

-<title>&kde; The Application Development Framework</title>
-
-<para>&kde; focuses on the user's needs, but it's obvious that this
-focus is more easily achieved by also giving developers the best
-tools. &kde; code contains, and comes with, some of the best
-development technologies of the modern computing age.</para>
-
-<para>Authoring applications under &UNIX;/X11 used to be an extremely
-tedious and labor intensive process. &kde; recognizes the fact that a
-computing platform is only as good as the number of first class
-applications available to the users of that particular
-platform.</para>
-
-<para>&kde; defines new technologies in &DCOP; and KParts, created to
-offer a component document model and technology. Together with the
-complete &kde; libraries programming interface, &DCOP;/KParts are set
-in direct competition with other similar technologies like &Microsoft;
-<abbrev>MFC</abbrev>/<abbrev>COM</abbrev>/ActiveX technologies. The
-excellent quality and the high level of refinement of &kde;'s
-application programming interface (<acronym>API</acronym>) enables
-developers to focus on original and interesting issues and avoid
-reinventing the wheel.</para>

-<sect1 id="what-is-kde-the-office-suite">
-<title>&kde; The Office Application Suite</title>
-
-<para>In its current form, &kde; provides, apart from the essential desktop
-component applications, a suite of powerful office programs known to the
-world by the name &koffice;.</para>
-
-<para>&koffice; is based on the &kde; &DCOP;/KParts
-technologies. It currently contains: a word processor with desktop
-publishing capabilities (&kword;), a spreadsheet application (&kspread;)
-and accompanying charting program (&kchart;), a presentation program
-(&kpresenter;) and a vector drawing program (&kontour;). Tying things
-together is the <application>KOffice Workspace</application>, an
-integrated shell to ease the use of the &koffice; components in
-conjunction with each other. Additional components include an email
-client, a news reader, and a powerful <abbrev>PIM</abbrev> (Personal
-Information Manager - an organizer).</para>
-
-<para>While some of those components are still in alpha development,
-others are already extremely powerful. For example, &kpresenter;,
-&kde;'s presentation application, was successfully used at the 5th
-International &Linux; Congress in Cologne, Germany to deliver a &kde;
-presentation. </para>
