Sun about to release "Mad Hatter"

The Mad Hatter project at Sun should prove to be a real boon to Solaris users worldwide, particularly those who hate the transition from Windows or Macs to the more bare-bones CDE environment. Yes, I talk at length in Solaris 9 for Dummies about the transition from CDE to GNOME as a desktop environment for Solaris, but the Mad Hatter project definitely goes further than just a standard GNOME configuration.

Dave's Answer: Sun has actually released some screen shots of the new environment, as you can see at their interesting article Sun offers a desktop alternative with Project Mad Hat.

If you're a Solaris user or even just curious about yet another riff on a Windows-like graphical interface that continues the progress toward making Solaris and Unix more user friendly, do check it out!
