True accelerated desktop, along with true transparencies, fading menus, drop shadows. All controllable, all free. Linux > * Thought you guys would like that.

I like some of the Linuxes, and thought about installing Ubuntu on my Mac, but it doesnt have the HDD space for another OS right now… __________________ [size=1]From my head, to my palm

I had it set up, but found it too slow to use for anything more than fun. check out my screen shot. http://www.1src.com/forums/showthre...42&page=1&pp=15 can linux do 3D? p.s. I am sure that it can. __________________ New PDA:Sharp Sl-C860 + (1) 1GB SD Card + (1) 2GB CF card. + (4) 512MB CF cards. + (1)256MB SD card. + (1)LinksysWCF12.

Robyr Resident Linux Geek Join Date: May 2005 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 277	For the people who ***** about it looking old: its called minimalist. Also, no, i have used linux for ~7 years. And no, pretty much nothing other than linux can do a true accelerated desktop like that. Linux did this before MacOS, and, for the record. LiteStep can NOT do any of that LMAO.

And yours is not NVidia Desktop. Mine just looks more complex

. The multitude of things going on is to show off the transparency effect through Nvidia Desktop and Windows.

You can't just show a few little things and saw you have the best transparency ever. I've shown off my transparency way more than you have. Step up your game
