Not that there wasn't a difference before but I was using 2 different GUI's. Now I am using the same kde on both types of Linux and kde+slackware@1ghz has few dificulties keeping up with kde+Ubuntu@3ghz.
Ubuntu has also done some customizations to KDE that I, personally, just can't stand, like how they set up the toolbars in Konqueror and the background in the file manager.
They only make changes to Kubuntu. If you install Ubuntu, and then install KDE aferwards, it's just a stock Debian KDE desktop.
Really? I remember trying that at one point. and it still had the ugly-ass Konqueror customizations.

I installed KDE on Ubuntu a few weeks ago, and it was just a regular Debian desktop, complete with the same wallpaper that you get with a Debian proper installation. There might have been a few tweaks, but I didn't notice anything significant. It looked stock to me, minus the wallpaper.
