Nice work!

Which Linux version is the easiest to begin with? Ubuntu?

[xilium]

Yeah, i like debian taste, ubuntu is a debian based more friendly distro for desktop users.

how did you get the boot screen like that?

[xilium]

Search on google "debian bootsplash" it´s quite easy. :)

Compiz fusion is great. The fact is that, nobody will ever believe unless they experience it. If somebody wants to watch compiz effects, just get a Knoppix 5.6 DVD and boot from it. (Compiz in Knoppix will work smoothly if your board is genuine intel).

why don't you put your taskbar at the top and leave the dock at the bottom to make it LOOK like a MAC (or a Hackintosh)
