My point is that KDE4 reminds me a lot of Windows Vista, and it doesn't really 
matter a rat's ass where the clock came from, does it?  The first time I saw 
the clock, and the whole concept of putting little widgets on the desktop was 
in Windows Vista.  The next time I saw the clock, and the whole concept of 
putting little widgets on the desktop was in the KDE 4 live CD.  Therefore 
KDE 4 reminds me a lot of Windows Vista.  It doesn't matter if Babbage's 
difference engine had a clock widget on its desktop; this is still the 
sequence of exposure to the concept I experienced, and that sequence is 
totally indisputable.  Therefore, KDE4 reminds me a lot of Windows Vista.  
There is no possible argument here to counter the assertion that, as I 
asserted previously, it appears from my perspective that KDE is following 
Microsoft's lead.

That might not be true, and I am not asserting that it is.  Merely that is 
appears that way from my perspective.  Which it does, indisputably.

End of discussion.
