Yay! Hopefully, the KDE people can use it to help Konquerer pass the Acid2 Test. Right now, it does abysmally.

Anyone notice that in the Preview Column in the finder it now shows the Architecture for applications. All the apple ones seem to be PowerPC still. I guess this just of hint of things to come
