Well, when someone starts paying me to believe in the power of Linux I'll take a serious look.

Until then, I'm a microsoft zombie

When you click a window they all jump back to their old positions except the new one is on top. Ever alt-tab through 6 windows to find the one you want? This is so smooth and amazing when you do alt-tab you HATE IT and think it takes a life time. It never takes more then a click to get to the window you want. Its more GUI then Windows ;)

Its not necessary... but it sure makes the desktop "feel" right.


Can you give me a download link? I found lots of binaries but not sure which one(s) I need.

Everybody: Just think if Dragn didn't have the cubes to keep him organized...
