XPde: Cloning the XP Interface

Posted by timothy on from the trompe-l'oeil dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Over at XPde.com, a clone of the Windows XP interface is progressing. They aim to copy the XP interface down to every last detail- with exceptions for text that specifically mentions Windows XP or Microsoft. Their project seems to be coming along well, and assuming they meet their goal, nobody can complain about Linux not being enough like XP. Here is the screenshots page." Depends what you like, I suppose ;)

    Unfortunately the open source community isn't very capable when it comes to innovation. Just about every application you think of as innovative on the open source side has already been made and sold by proprietary software corporations.
