zerothisI'd like to make our organization's computers act enough like other operating systems that volunteers are not scared away from operating them. Similar look, same shortcut keys, menu layout, similar names for it all ("Stuff" menu instead of Start Menu, Contortion Panel, Finger instead of Finder, etc). I know how to do all that, but, can I then setup several "new user profiles", one themed mac, one themed XP, one themed vista. 03:31
zerothissetup several "new user profiles", one themed mac, one themed XP, one themed vista. Then when a new user is created, easily select one; ideally the new user would select it?03:32
sbalneavzerothis: are you planning on using separate window managers to accomplish this?04:05
zerothissbalneav:in an ideal word, I'd use only one display manager. but I need passable vista eye-candy, widgets, and start menu searcher (KDE4); that all-in-one-top-o-the-screen menu and application searcher thingy from mac (GNOME does it), and the hotkeys and other behaviors (KDE and GNOME).  xfce does the looks great but I don't know about the behviors, and if I start hacking in KDE and gnome elements into Xfce, things will proba04:17
