You can apparently use Windows 7’s compositor in GNOME, and vice versa – or something (www.osnews.com)

Thanks, I hate it.

Same, both the idea and the author's insistence on referring to themself in the third person, which made it significantly harder for me to understand.

That's so cool. I love the windows 7 look, really was the true peak of old school desktop OS aesthetics. I use the DWMblur on my desktop PC myself alongside aerotweaker, oldnewexplorer and cracked startisback and some winhawk mods to get a decent look while still being usable but on a hack level this is way cooler.
