Description
there should be an easy way to install mac4lin. A deb package would be great, this should also automatically configure keyboard shortcuts to match OS X key bindings...

I refere to this project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin

And the goal is to make linux look like OS X

To install Mac OS is illegal on any computer except a Mac. This is a bad idea because legality is key.

Umm, massond, this isn't about installing OSX on linux actually. (davim should update the idea asap to emphasise this).

Its goal is to make a linux desktop which looks like OSX..

I should add its a nice transition technology from OSX

Sorry for confusion, but you could just install gOS, which is based of Ubuntu.

Well, thats the reason I want the idea updated, because even I didn't know at first. I was just interested in it (as I never heard of such a product).

just so there's less confusion, I believe this is what he's talking about: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin

its basically a theme pack...
