I'm not sure I agree or that many care so much. In just the last few
weeks I have had one 80 year old and one 30 year old both say they
wanted the Windows XP interface back over Windows 7/Vista repectively.

Which bit exactly do you think looks like win 98? xfce4-panel;
gnome-panel runs in xfce.

It should take very little to improve the look of xfce and with very
little memory usage increase.

I have no idea why RTFM is used so aggressively on LINUX mailing lists
because whilst 'apropos' is traditionally the most powerful command on
Unix-like systems it's 'modern' replacement 'apropos' on Linux is a tool
to help psychopaths learn to control their anger.
