It's just the look of it, not the actual controls.

In windows, there should be a 'personalize' section, which lets you play around with different skins/colours etc. Should be located in a similar place to the change wallpaper function.

I gave instructions for windows though. I don't know how you go about the process on osx. I'm sure it can be done though.

Also, you'd need to download a specific ubuntu skin. It wouldn't be a default option, it makes no sense competitively.

Any Linux operating system is a LOT different and harder to use than a Windows or a Mac.

lol no

i'd be inclined to say that linux distros using gnome are very similar to mac osx (unix base, similar terminal commands), especially the latest iterations of ubuntu

also windows is the least intuitive for a newbie e.g.
-requirement to install 3rd party antivirus software
-requirement to install 3rd party drivers
-no centralised 'software centre' or 'app store'

etc

mac would be easiest, followed closely by consumer oriented linux distros (ubuntu, elementary os, linux mint, fedora, arch etc.) then followed by windoze

@annagurl, absolutezero

don't get a skin to mimic another os

it will end up looking tacky and if any computer literate friends ever use your computer they will laugh
