@ Blu0tuth0ninja ,

did u work it out ?

[Mrtommyg011]

im tryin longhorn for the first time Jman keep up the good work are you using simalar features nlike ubuntu effects not angry just wondering looks really nice and i hope your project goes well

[jman6495]

to be honest i don't give a damn about apple , there pc's r 2 expensive , and MS did get there first with the tablet , if apple would have been less secretive mabi things would have been more intersting

A version of Linux modeled after Longhorn... there probably won't be something better than that in a LONG time!

[LoloftheRings]

Longhorn Linux Aero 0.7 as it should be.

to all those people who hate windows looks on linux: This is just a showoff what you can do with linux! raargh!

[ShadowwwLFS]

showoff? This bling-bling would make new users hate linux. I use openbox & I have never seen something as non-bothering as it.

[LoloftheRings]

I use dwm, you GUI lover!

[ShadowwwLFS]

ur vry leet, go have your medal

[hoppimike]

I think that's pretty awesome :)

and woah is that GNOME under there!? How on earth did you get the menu to come up like that? o.O

[jman6495]

it is gnome , the menu is VistaMenu (Took Me 4 Hours To Get It To Work Properly)

[RussellGeee]

Wheres the innovation?

Linux is never going to get anywhere if we copy our competitors.

[jman6495]

but we're not , longhorn was never released to the public XD

[RussellGeee]

@jman6495

your totally missing my point, your copying microsoft's ideas.we meed our own image and we need to be unique.copying and unfinished product made my microsoft five years ago is going to get the linux desktop nowhere.

[zikalify]

@RussellGeee i think its good it copies windows, the reason windows is popular is because ppl r familiar and if they see this theyll feel confident and use it :)

[jman6495]

yeah! not to mension it will really p1ss off micro$oft

[Mrtommyg011]

microsoft ditched longhorn and went with vista wich i would rather have this than vista that was a power hog

[starcannon]

Pretty cool Winux mod. Nice job.

Too the haters, good grief, its just dude enjoying his computer; why the hostility? Oh right, wtf am I thinking, this is YT, no trolls and the site would vanish.

[jman6495]

lol

[ubuntututorials]

Where's UAC? The Vista experience isn't the same without nagging dialogs!

[jman6495]

ahh ... but this isn't vista,

i don't know if you know but from 2003 to 2005 They Were Developing An OS Called Longhorn , This OS Was On a completely Different Code Base To Vista,

it was very unstable , and hard to fix , it also had the ideas for windows 7

ex :

Libraries In Windows 7 = WinFS In Longhorn

Homegroup in Windows 7 = Castle In Longhorn

BUt In 2005 They canceled Longhorn ,and Started Again on the Server 2003 Codebase.

UAC was Not Intergrated Until Vista Beta

[jman6495]

See WIkipedia "The Development Of Windows Vista"

[Ne0nLiteZ]

youre missing the blur.

[jman6495]

i know , my card isn't good enough

[DavidTheCatMedia]

It takes about 20 minutes to make GNOME look like that. I am definately unimpressed.

[jman6495]

good luck getting the REAL and ORIGINAL longhorn Resources!

[DavidTheCatMedia]

Looks like a duck, sounds like a duck? Far as I'm concerned, that's as original a duck as it gets. The ORIGINAL bits were on some long-discarded hard drive anyway.

It's not like the leaked longhorn builds aren't hanging around still, so its not hard to track those down. But even that is unneeded, because the look can easily be imitated.

[jman6495]

ahh... but this is a Legal Duck!!!!!

[fantasmaofdoom]

looks amazing :D guess my mom would use it if she had this :D

[fantasmaofdoom]

btw but change the windows icon? :s :D

[russjr08]

This is awesome!! It could help new Linux users convert!
