Default Puppy Linux KDE

Is there a way to put KDE on Puppy Linux?

Believe it or not I have installed Puppy on my HD and I love it. It is fast and it even has a tool that I found that is similar to CNR. It is quite different than someting like SuSE or Slackware, that is why I want KDE. I have found though that it does not really run very well on CD, it runs much better on an HD.

Actually, Puppy does not come with XFCE, I did download it though. I got XFCE 4.2 and then found that there is an update for it, I am going to install that. I like it better than KDE. I have a SuSE Live DVD that uses KDE (it is version 9.2 though).
