Vixta: The Vista of Linux?!
Crazy about the Windows Vista UI, but love Linux? Vixta could be your your thing. Vixta is a new Fedora-based Linux distribution featuring a surprisingly Windows Vista like look and feel. In fact, it’s so surprisingly like Windows Vista that Redmond based lawyers can’t be far behind - it’s a pretty blatant rip of the Aero interface.
While Vixta captures the look of Vista, one wonders if it’s truly as evolved as Vista is. Windows Vista may have it’s flaws, but ove all it is a highly polished operating system with lots of features to make it easy to use for the not so computer literate. No, really. This kind of refinement in a user interface takes a lot of time and energy to develop. The Linux underpinnings might be rock solid, but if Vixta’s stated goal is bringing Linux to the masses, it’s the chrome that will make a difference.

I think Vista Aero interface is copyrighted. And users of Vixsta may have problems with lаws.

Нафига мне флаг Грузии повесили? Это еще круче чем интерфейс аэро на линуксе

Aero отстой по сравнению с берилом. Ставить интерфейс висты на линукс все равно что ставить на мерс движок от газонокосилки - некрасиво и непрактично. Интересно кто это без ума от аэро? Ау!
Еще и предыдущее сообщение удалили - писал это до того как мне флаг повесили, отстойный сайт.

This is a really stupid and confusing attempt to mimic Aero, and so is the name, Lindows fate come to my mind with Vixta…Just a KDE/Gnome theme will be more that enough.
