Quote (davide @ Feb. 01 2005,16:55) | maybe Xpde also deserves a try. it claims to be light, even if not that light i suppose. don't know if it requires dependencies that are not there in DSL. It's the most windows-looking WM that I've found surfing around. good luck Xpde |
Interesting... Very Interesting... Your average joe wouldn't have a clue they weren't using XP. Though I'm guessing it'd be a pain trying to get it going under DSL, maybe if you do a full HD install, get all the dependencies etc set up, then image the drive to copy it to the other machines?
Though it's a little bit TOO XP for me - would be preferable to make it at least a BIT different, eg. cooler skins. Something that's similar enough so the average joe (or jane, or whatever) can readily transfer from XP, but different enough for them to notice and say, "ooh, that's cool, what's this thing running?" Don't think it would be lightweight enough for most slower machines, though. But could be wrong, didn't see anything about system requirements.
Cool for noobies maybe, which is what xmak is after.
