+<answer>
+<!-- This needs a rewrite including informations about the latest version (link to the info page?)-->
+<para>The easiest way to get &kde; is to install a &Linux; distribution or another UNIX-like OS that ships with &kde;.
+You can find an up-to-date list of distributions that ship
+with &kde; <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/download/distributions.php">here</ulink>. For alternative methods of 
+trying &kde; that do not require you to be running &Linux;, please see 
+<ulink url="http://kde.org/try_kde">Try &kde;</ulink></para>
+
+<para>The main distribution site for &kde; is 
+<ulink url="ftp://ftp.kde.org/">ftp.kde.org</ulink>. However, this site is
+often under heavy load, so you might prefer to use 
+<ulink url="http://download.kde.org/">download.kde.org</ulink> which automatically
+redirects you to the mirror nearest to you.
+You can also have a look at the list of <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/ftpmirrors.html"> &kde; mirror sites</ulink>.</para>

+<answer>
+<para>You can get the latest snapshots from <ulink
+url="ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/unstable/snapshots">ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/unstable/snapshots</ulink>.
