Hi Gustav:

It was a comment made in a video podcast, I was watching; acccording to one of the announcers, that is the case...I am not familiar with every Linux distro and modification but I have seen a Linux interfaces where you wouldn't know if it was an Apple or alternatively know whether you are looking at Windows 7 or XP...as the desktops are very flexible.

I will dig deeper and find it; assuming you are interested in getting into Linux. ;-)

Hi Jim

Where do you see the Linux part? It looks like a start menu expanded with Metro tiles.

Hi All:

Well, it looks like classic Windows is back in Windows 9. For those who went all in on using the metro interface for their appliucations there is still time to make some changes:

Aside: It sure now looks like Linux distro to me? ;-)
