http://ubuntuforums.org – How can I make Ubuntu 12.04Lts with the Gnome Classic (No Effects) look like MAC OX Snow Leopard like the MACBuntu Theme in 10.04 that looked almost exactely like the real MAC OS X Snow Leopard? I've found some posts on how to make Unity look like MAC OS Lion and had it on my system at one time but it was not as good as the MACBuntu theme in 10.04 plus I've reinstalled since then and want to install a theme that is as good as or as close to the MACBuntu for 10.04 and works for 12.04Lts with the Gnome interface created from instructions from this posting https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pr.. (Hardware)
