@Wash *"Of course it's not OS X, James. What did you expect? To have Darwin kernel running on your PC? Just like that?"* OSX86 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSx86> <- Fully fledged Darwin kernel running on your PC (non mac x86 Machine) Just like that! [?] When Apple migrated from formidable PPC to x86 Architecture, they made it possible. Back to the Pear OS thing, its sad to see a linux distro going down the *ching chong / kung fu / <goog_454451273> **Shanzhai<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanzhai> *path. Every OS should atleast provide a unique desktop experience (including look and feel) instead of trying to ape other UIs. But anyway, its their distro so its their perogative to "copy pasta" _______________________________________________ *Without requirements or design, programming is the art of adding bugs to an empty text file.* _______________________________________________ * * 2012/1/16 [ Brainiac ] <arebacollins@gmail.com>

I dunno about you folks but that distro is like a cheap Chinese imitation of OSX.

Dream Linux has quite an awesome UI albeit quite unstable [ http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=dreamlinux ]. It is Debian-based too and geared for Desktop / Multimedia use.
