It's great for businesses trying to switch their employee's from Windows to Linux. Read XPDE's FAQ, it's not meant to be funny, it's meant to make the switch easier.

Faust:
He just said it was scary not funny.  Personally I think training wheels is fine, provided you remove them when you dont need them anymore.

i tried it. its nice, needs a lot of work, a lot of stuff isnt implemented, but its nice. Translucent icon dragging, fading menus look real. But, for instance, I cant drag select icons on the desktop. Very scary though, but it would be grossly entertaining to see them implement Windows exactly. So everything look and acted exactly like Windows (without the crashes). Then we could run around saying "Well us Linux people are great, we've already created a one-for-one Windows-like version of Linux. It looks and works identical. So there. Okay I'm rambling. When such rambling happens, its safe to ignore the last 10-12 lines of what I'm saying.

I agree  

This will be extremely helpfulin converting people. I wouldn't be suprised if some distros started including it on their install CD's
