Did anyone else see the Slashdot article on what kind of eye candy will be possible on future versions of X Windows? I watched one of the videos and couldn't help but be reminded of all of the old conversations regarding sheets, dock magnification, poofs, minimizing, etc on OS X. "Oh, my poor clock cycles!"

I do find that a good, clean, and aesthetically pleasing interface is one of the biggest things missing from a positive Linux experience now-a-days. Maybe people are finally working to fix that...

I just hope that particular effect doesn't become standard. The wobbling menus looks like they would get annoying pretty fast.

The workspace switcher looks nice, but I hope the wobbling windows are just a demo of what the technology can do and not actually something that will ever be implemented.

I'd like to be able to flip my windows around and use the back of them like with Sun's Looking Glass.

I don't know why just yet, I just know that I do.
