And, Solar OS is nice, but there's another OS by Oracle, or Sun that is called "Solarice OS" (see my point  smile  )

Sorry, I meant to ask what Desktop Environment... I am using LightDM with the Bluebird theme (for login) and a modified background. My install started out as xubuntu but I have removed XFCE and xubuntu-desktop and replaced it with my own custom desktop environment based on Nautilus, Docky-2, and Gnome-do. I think I will upload a Project or a video showcasing this soon.

EDIT: Nevermind, it was the first question asked on your EzySqueeze thread!

Alternate Windows Shell?

For all of you future Windows 8 users, you know the design is somewhat pleasing, but is hard to get used to... I seriously miss my good old start menu/orb  sad . I am planning to make a Windows port of this project that will replace the current shell with my new one. Tell me what you think and if you would be interested in porting this to Windows.

no... windows 8 is good.

He didn't say it was bad.

He said 'it's hard to get used to due for me as I miss the good old start button'
