Make ubuntu look like windows 7.
I found this and thought it was also funny:

Quote:Well I know alot of you have already downloaded the new Windows 7 Beta, I took the liberty of doing just the same as all of you already have, the only difference is I did with with entirely different motives. I had a good look at it, and I must be honest, its far better than Vista, possibly even better than XP, but that's not why I have made this post.

The reason I got on to this was to show the world what I have done with it, and lo behond, look in the images below to see:

Now that seems like not much, until I tell you that that is NOT Windows 7, infact, you will find that it is Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex, so how did I do it? That's what this is about.

To read on go to the source page.

Haha! That's pretty nice!
It doesn't exactly looks like Windows 7, but it's decently close.

As for me, I use Windows 7, anyway. I'd get Ubuntu, but I don't want to partition my small 40GB HDD.

by the way, this is surely with the KDE desktop look and not GNOME, right?

RE: Make ubuntu look like windows 7.
its just a gnome panel. Im sure he is still working on getting it to look exactly like windows 7. I like my set up right now so i am probably going to try this out when i get bored of my current theme.
