Default Looking Glass: Sun open source java desktop

Hi All:

Go through the following links, it is having download and installation information regarding looking glass. I have installed it and it requires jdk and jre 1.5, its very good but its dead slow.

We will see same kind of desktop in coming years for Linux too!! Till then enjoy Looking Glass.

Heh ashish, for Linux will soon get what is know as XGL, it may get merged into the main X.org soon (Linux x server). It'll bring in lots of cool eyecandy and 3D stuff for Linux. Here are some screenshots

Beware only men with brave-heart will try it now, it take some time to install and configure
