The local Computer Charity, which restores up computers and sells them cheap for those who can't afford them otherwise, is looking for a Linux desktop that looks enough like the Windows or Mac GUI that less tech savvy buyers will see something that looks and operates in a familiar way. This will allow them to use a ton of Macs that are otherwise junk. Of course, the usual Gnome or KDE Linux desktops won't work. Probably impossible to copy closely Win or Mac due to patent issues, but thought I'd ask just in case.<div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail-m_-6175039305998825282m_6451758856494470232gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font size="1"><font color="#666666">Ron Newman, M.S., M.M.E.</font></font></div><div dir="ltr"><font size="1"><font color="#666666">Founder, </font></font><a href="http://www.Ideatreelive.com" style="font-size:x-small" target="_blank">IdeaTreeLive.com</a> <span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-size:x-small">Knowledge Modeling</span></div><div dir="ltr"><div><font size="1"><a href="http://www.RonPiano.com" target="_blank">www.RonPiano.com</a></font></div><div><font size="1"><a href="https://blog.ideatreelive.com" target="_blank">Blog</a></font></div><div><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><br></font></font><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
