The one thing that hit me was that he concentrates to much on the widgets. He evidently hasn't used KDE4.3.2 and hasn't tried using the OS past playing around with widgets.

To say that web centric OS is even remotely ground breaking and/or revolutionary is laughable. Guess what? There is still an underlying kernel that has to drive everything. The true OS.
