       Please stop turning linux distros into Windows 7 clones. Thank you!

       @alexandru_balan it can be helpful to prevent users from being scared though. The familiarity of the UI was tremendously useful to make sure my parents didn't freak out when I switched them to Linux Mint for ecample

       @MatterI fully understand that people just don't like or sometimes really can't change the way they operate, but I also can't stop thinking that all this theming and extra bloating in order to turn a distro into windows 7 will just only introduce more overhead and bugs.Not big things mind you, but it is the little bugs that drive users away. If it just looks like windows 7, but apps behave weird due to theming than users won't really stick around
