Good... :-) Finally someone can make it look less atrocious and primitive.
I always thought open look made any system feel 10 years older.  The only
thing where the widgets suck more is 4dwm... that dumpster is pathetic.
Otherwise I'd be happy using either one.  And what is with wm designers
who favor pastels... ick.  Give me NeXT greyscale over that.

I like Aqua and Windomaker/GNUSTEP most.
