K Desktop Environment, originally Kool Desktop Environment, but I bet
they won't admit that anymore.  www.kde.org for more information.
It's a window manager + toolkit + desktop and related apps, and uses
the QT library, from www.troll.no (?)

The GNU attempt to do the same...a desktop environment.  Not as far

www.gnome.org

Ok, time to spot the patterns...www.samba.org.  =)
Samba is one of the greatest pieces of software ever...it lets you
share your UNIX box in a Windows 95/NT SMB network...and the beta2
stuff will let you do NT Domains without an NT server.  Tres cool.

HTH.
