A dream of a Linux distribution where the entire desktop environment is Win32 software running under WINE. A completely free and open-source OS where you can just download .exe files and run them, for the power user who isn't necessarily a Unixhead, or just for someone who thinks this sounds fun.
I like the layout and looks of windows 2000 but I think running actual exe files from the old OS is not viable from security standpoint.
Familiarity goes a really long way. My mom still wants her PortalTV unit to answer to voice commands.
That sounds like a windows application she wants to run? Ok but why the rest of the stuff? I set up Debian+MATE (windows-like window manager) for my mom to replace her old Windows box and she didn’t notice the difference.
