Etoile Project Releases Mac-Like Environment

pschmied writes "Today the Étoilé Project released v0.2 of its Desktop Environment. Not only does Étoilé share user interface similarities with Mac OS X, Étoilé enjoys some source-level compatibility with Mac OS X as well. Many here undoubtedly remember NeXT, the revolutionary computer / development environment that gave rise to the first Web browser and later became the foundation of Mac OS X. Étoilé uses the FSF's own implementation of the NeXT development environment, GNUstep, making this a close technological relative of OS X. Screenshots and a source tarball are available."

    Huh? WTF are you talking about? What "backwards" scrollbars? I know from your stupid comments that you have never used OS X for more than a few minutes. Buy a Mac and use it over a few weeks (2-3 weeks) and you will be converted. End of story.

    So, you are a stupid, idiot that likes to lick balls!

    "I don't mean to be an art snob or to demean the people who doubtlessly worked hard on this," and yet you very much did demean their hard work, work for which they were not paid, did not ask your blessing, nor did they need it. It's the very essence of snobbery to suppose that your personal taste is the yardstick by which others judge success and failure.

    How do you say... oh, FUCK OFF?

    Seriously. What is your problem?
