Yes, that would be the easiest to use UI. While concepts like
http://www.symphonyos.com/ are much closer to the Fitts's laws of UI
design.. we also have to accept the fact that the current UI concepts
derived from XWindows, MacOS and MS Windows in past 15-20 years...
good or bad... have already become popular, have gained acceptance.

True but this graphical no-window animated desktop ( From now on, lets
term this desktop as Animated Desktop ) will fill the gap between users
and non-users. Nowadays our PCs are becoming more fast and memory
resources are increasing but all this is still used to open the same
standard window. India still has a lot of scope for adding new users who
otherwise keep away from PCs. This is also aimed at helping senior
citizens. It is not meant to be used in a professional environment. In
linux we have the facility of switching desktops so by default the new
animated desktop automatically starts and when an advanced user from the
same family wants to sit on the pc, he/she will switch to the normal
desktop till the machine reboots again. In windows we can't do that so
we got an edge over them.
