Amazing stuff, I presume they've made a whole new Xwindow GUI for those effects? Beats shitty KDE and Gnome by lightyears.
I'll be having a play with this.

Yup, you're right Fuzzy
Yeah, it doesn't really take much to run, well it runs fine for me and I have:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ @ 1.8ghz. 1gig ram. Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 GTO 256mb.
Check out Ubuntu. Pretty good distro for first timers / newbies @ Linux
