Questions About RH-DW? Q:
Is this just a desktop theme? Couldn't I do this myself? A:
RH-DW was done originally as an example of customizing Linux to
accommodate Windows Users. It utilizes several projects to
present the desktop to the user in a familiar manner. Q:
The icons look awfully like Microsoft Icons - Are they? A:
The icons on the desktop are provided by the "Luna"
theme. We did not take these icons from Microsoft, nor did we
construct them to appear that way.
Q: This project seems to be for
workstations - what does this have to do with the SERVER development
network?
A: Absolutely nothing. Network
Administrators may consider this for use on workstations.
Ultimately, it came down to wWe had this, so we figured we'd
share. Enjoy.
