Choice is beautiful. There are very few distributions that come in the form
of lookalikes 'out of the box'. Very few of them even have these among the
/a priori/ included collection of 'themes' (maybe for legal reasons). For
those who enjoy mimicking another environment (for fun or familiarity),
sites such as kde-look.org and gnome-look.org actually exist. The
possibilities are endless... and free! To download, to modify, to
redistribute even...
