Sun Mad Hatter Linux Desktop Revealed

Posted by timothy on from the this-is-not-your-father's-cde dept.

magellan writes "Sun has released screenshots of its upcoming Mad Hatter Linux desktop. Mad Hatter includes GNOME, StarOffice, Evolution, and Mozilla. Sun has made minor modifications to Gnome to make it more familiar to Windows users. Sun's Mad Hatter, along with SuSE's new push on the desktop, could make Linux on the corporate desktop and laptop a bigger reality."

      OSX is the hottie who doesn't share any of your interests and wants a credit card so she can go shopping at the mall.
