It's working pretty well, but some of the little tweaks work differently. For 
instance, under KDE3, you can make a picture your wallpaper by dragging it to 
the desktop and clicking on one of the choices that come up. Under KDE4, 
there's a little squiggly thing in the upper right hand corner that you 
right-click on. That brings up a GUI that lets you select a new background.
