Is It Windows Or Linux Or Both?

,----[ Quote ]
| Take a quick look at the picture (at left) of my computer desktop.  Can you 
| see that I'm running the Windows operating system?  Take a look at the tool 
| bar at the bottom of the screen.  Yep. That's the Windows "Start" button 
| plain as day.   So, I must be running Windows, right?

Typical misconception: GNU/Linux should look and behave the 'right way', i.e.
just like Windows. More here:

Linux That Looks Like Windows: Bad!

,----[ Quote ]
| Conclusion: Linux already has excellent mainstream desktop environments
| which have a unique look and feel which differs from that of Windows.
| That's not a bad thing: Linux doesn't need to look like Windows. If a
| user wants to make their Linux distro look like the OS they left
| behind, that's perfectly fine - all they need to do is install
| xpde or LXP. However, what we cannot do is mimic Windows'
| interface, as that would destroy one of the Linux desktop's
| greatest advantages - its beauty, difference, innovation and
| ease of use.
