Using Knoppix 3.3 (HD installed) and KDE 3.1.5, "Redmond" color scheme. I'm trying to make it look like "Windows" as much as possible.

hope you like my theme :D

i LOVE it. it means i can switch between XP and Linux and only notice a few different programs, and other people don't get to confused when using it either.

AWESOME!

Where can I download your theme? Will it work with KDE 3.1.5 and Kernel 2.4.24?

Not unusual with RPM based distros.

Debian's package management system is great if you have 24/7 internet connection. It can automatically download and install dependencies.

Knoppix doesn't have Gnome, so I'm having problem making apps work that require Gnome libraries.

If you have broadband, then Debian is the way to go. Check distrowatch for Debian review. You don't need to download all ISOs again, apt-get can automatically download required updates and keep your OS up-to-date.

I'll still have cable for awhile here, i'm getting good at installing programs now and running them. So there's no real need. Just kinda hard getting used to different commands.

sorry bro that was infact a hoax :P (that is my Windows XP install witha few tweaks in paint ;) )

although i almost exclusivly use Linux based open source software in windows (yeah XP is the only non-free software i own)

i have however found this interesting site that you might want to check out for a windows look and feel.
