Apple has been cultivating their desktop's overall gestalt and
UI-theory for ten years now, and they bought that whole parade from
NeXT.

I can guarantee you that DreamLinux is drawing inspiration from Apple
who's pilfering NeXT OS, who's probably either working off of the
dream of some ancient (now dead) X11 WM, or else was someone's Ph.D.
