Make Your Linux Desktop Look Like A Mac - Mac4Lin

posted in GnuLinux, Hacks, Mac |

Do you want to give your desktop a pinch of Mac OS X? Do you want to change your GNOME desktop from the default look to something likemac4lin-documentation_html_m2ad3b0cf.jpg this? Use Mac4Lin to give it the look and feel of Mac OS X (latest being 10.5, Leopard) on *nix GTK based systems.

Make this happen by Using Mac4Lin on your Linux system. I use Ubuntu  and it worked awesome. The only thing I could not get is  the icons at the bottom, apart from that I have got the perfect MAC look for my Ubuntu system. 

Here is a nice tutorial on how to go about on Howtoforge and also the Mac4Lin has nice documentation.

Don't forget to thank the owner. Its an amazing piece of work.

Download all the 3 parts.
