Yeah, Kerning is a Bitch

I noticed this a long time ago, but I suppose I’m the only one. Look at the Kubuntu logo:

The Kubuntu logo
The Kubuntu logo

Never mind the bitchass glass effects and drop shadow. Focus on the spacing between the letters K and U, and compare it to the other letters. I suppose they really like to emphasize that even the logo is just an extension of Ubuntu.

Or, as O’Toole puts it

“Typography? Aesthetics? What's that and how can I apt-get it?”

That being said, I am writing this on my Kubuntu laptop.
