 I'm using kde with icewm on this system. You can set it up any way you like
{tho' right now that's pretty similar to windows {riscos windows with the b3
style and strangely enough... the osx icon pack. :}}}

 There are clones of Aqua for just about everything... It would be fairly easy
to emulate osx pretty closely.

 I think I'm going to go with GNUstep on my debian system and in HURD {same
system {drive} actually}}. I found a bunch of OpenStep apps the other day that
have been ported to it {Mach}. With a little tweaking it should make for a nice
NEXT/OSX/linux/OpenStep hybrid.
