From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I see few of these, but there might be more:
The icons on the desktop are too apart from each other.
The icon for a floppy disk is much different to what's on Windows XP.
I think program names in the taskbar are 1 or 2 pixels too high, but I might be wrong.
The icons in the notification area are too close to each other.
Last icon in the notification area is too close to the clock.
There's too much padding to the left of notification area icons.
There's too much padding to the right of the taskbar clock.
Also, what's up with the tasks in the taskbar?
