On a Wow factor. I would have to give KDE 4.2 a Wo plus half of the final w. :) There was obviously a heck of a lot of improvements made to underlying code. Heck, I've even restored Konqueror as my default browser. Nspluginwrapper / flash is snappier in Konqueror than in Firefox. There are of course few of my favorite features still missing but the result is getting more and more impressive with every release. Absolutely fantastic.
