Even better, let's just update it:

The K in KDE did not stand for anything. It was the character that came before
L in the Latin alphabet, which stands for Linux. It was chosen because KDE ran
on many types of UNIX (and perfectly well on FreeBSD).

The T in TDE does stand for something. It stands for Trinity and is the name for
the project that brought you the first atomic bomb as well as the name of the
project that brought you this desktop. TDE also runs on many types of UNIX (and
perfectly well on FreeBSD).
