If you really like KDE why not install a KDE focused distro, such as
OpenSUSE? While OpenSUSE's GNOME setup isn't bad either, the distro has
always "leaned towards" KDE, and YaST in my humble opinion rocks... it
provides an actual GUI for Linux common tasks, administration and hardware.

The installer even lets you pick between KDE 3.5 or 4 (some people really
dislike KDE 4...)

I installed OpenSUSE 11.1 in a VirtualBox virtual machine at work this past
week, and I wasn't disappointed
