No he isnt... it was posted here a while ago. There is a new music player that wanted to look like itunes and be for linux. Well, the people making it were threatened by apples lawyers and are redoing it.

Yes, another example of Apple bullying people around with their fucking lawyers, just like they did with Microsoft. Losers. Apple's new slogan should be "Think different, or we will sue your sorry plagairising copy-cat ass."

As they should. We now know the evil that was brought uppon the world when they let M$ walk all over them in the beginning.
I wasen't reffering speciffically to the Panel in Gnome, or the Dock. You can argue that both of those are decendents of the Apple Menu items. Another APPLE invintion.
I'm reffering to the same metaphor. Everything from folders, windows, icon's etc. It's all inbred between various GUI's, it's getting a bit annoying is all I'm getting at.
I would love to see the open-source community kick the shit out of both Apple and M$ by comeing up with a new aproach to working with a computer. A more "human" Human interface. This is what having an open software community should be about, not emulating other OS's functionality, creating your own NEW ways.
That's my rant.
