There's a lot more to OS X than just Darwin. There's the Carbon, Cocoa and AppleScript APIs, the Quartz window manager, QuickTime, CoreAudio, Rendezvous, Inkwellââ‚à ‚¬Ã‚¦

Then there's also the fact that any program you wanted to run would have to be recompiled for x86, fine for command-line programs but I'd like to see you get PhotoShop or RealOne to run ;)

At a guess it's a warezed copy of Object Desktop I'm sure that's Object Dock running at the bottom and Samurize on the left.

How do you know it is a WAREZED copy. The guy might have paid for Object Desktop!

I don't, don't get me wrong, I'm not bothered what people download, I just said it looks like one as I believe (I could be wrong) that the legit downloads are performed through Stardock Central (and it looks a bit like a warez release filename, and let's face it, the three films downloaded above it aren't strictly legit :p)

backup copies ;-) however, that setup i use there is Star Object desktop, using some generic MacOS File menu at the top, a Desktop X MacOS clone, bigger coz the icons i had didnt look right on a smaller one, and the taskbar at the bottom i created myself, same with the samurize script on the left.

However, back to MacOS on x86, if you read the other thread on MacOS, youll see theres a site with ALOT of ported over mac stuff, linux stuff compiles in it the same, and Wine will let you run windows stuff... so you got all bases covered, and as for not having darwin lookin like the real MacOS, thats bull, just get off your ass and look for the gui, its out there and its ported. im not gonna do it for you, especially when you just make "nasty" little comments like children.

I think some people have misunderstood.

I don't actually want to run OS X on an x86 PC, I just want to make my KDE desktop look like OS X/Aqua.

I know it's possible to make Windows do it, but alas it doesn't seem possible to do the same for KDE. Never mind...

The taskbar that is absolutely identical to Object Dock?

Ahhhh my ideal moron, if only you knew what a TASK bar was before you posted... not a launch bar... and the launch bar is called DesktopX.

As for making KDE look like OSX, you could try:

customize.org
deskmod.com

and yahoo.com

You mean something like this?

and

There are several dozen other varients on freshmeat of Aqua, and I think a few WM's as well.

Have Fun,

What exactly is your problem mate? The rest of us are carrying on a friendly discussion. Why are you so determined to believe people are either out to get you or being completely thick?

I suggest you pause for a minute and learn the difference between being thick and not having knowledge on a certain subject. Fine, we could all just lock ourselves in a room and google about to get answers on a lot of stuff, but if we did that we'd all be hopeless geeks with no life and no friends, wouldn't we?

At least by discussing things in a forum like this we get to be part of a (mostly) friendly community. No-one in this thread or any other should feel intimidated about asking questions. Google or not, asking people is still the best way to learn.

*heh* I only called it a "taskbar" because it replace my taskbar with the object dock quicklaunch bar (object dock having it's own taskbar attached also). I'd just let him carry on if it makes him happy, to me it's water off a ducks back.
