Quartz Extreme or Similar on PC

Hey, I've long been in love with the "Aqua" theme running on MacOX but today, teaching, once again, my teacher how to you use his computer (an IBook) I fell in love with the Quartz system. Especially the feature where all the windows zoom out smoothly and are all layed out on the screen from where you can then select any one of the windows by clicking on them for them to zoom up. This is like a far more complex version of the "ALT+TAB" window we have in Windows (or KDE in linux)

Now, I was wondering if there is a similar feature available for Windows XP or Linux (KDE 3.1.3?) ?



Thanks,


 
That feature is actually called Expose, which was introduced with Mac OS 10.3 (Panther). Right now I don't think anything like that for the Windows world exists yet. But I can see someone adopting that feature using a Windows enhancement utility in the future.

There is a program that exists. It's been out for a few months. I used the first release for a few days, but it was too buggy and ate up too much memory. If I can dig up information on that thing, I'll post as soon as I find.

EDIT: Found 'em, but not the ones I used long ago.

there is WinPLOSION and iEx (The former is not free, and you must register to forums on the latter to get to download section).

Good luck. Enjoy!
