I can't seem to get mine working....may be my ATI card in combo with my Viewsonic VA1912wb....widescreen.

Had Sabayon 3.2 working thru an airlink 4X KVM switch and a Viewsonic 19" CRT with some of the effects.....

If you want to unseat the beast. What most users are used to is winblows. Its a fact of life. But if you think about it and know a little bit about the history, you would know that the famous winblows desktop is little more than a rip off of Apples GUI. And lets face it really the majority of the "using" public adores icons and graphics, so in order to overthrow Gates and Company, you must by necessity bow to the market.

And if you know a little bit more about the history, Apple's GIU is a direct ripoff of the paperless office developed by Xerox PARC.

Xerox had no idea what they had when they invented the GUI and mouse, and gave it all away.

Apple actually paid for the visit with a lot of Apple shares. The mouse was invented by Douglas Engelbart at Stanford; however, PARC did improve on Engelbart's design with the ball-based mouse (and their GUI was also an improvement on Engelbart's earlier work).

And Steve Jobs brought a bunch of the PARC researchers to work on the Lisa project, which led to the Mac.
