Well...
They are both software, both OSes - but I don't see how else they are
'the same', or even similar... ;-)

I said that months ago but a little differently. I said that Windows 7
is a lame *imitation* of Ubuntu.

Windows 7 "Aero" is a lame copy of Compiz.

How 'bout including the link? Anyway, NO they are NOT the "same." Not
EVEN close. Yeah, the tool bar in 7 RESEMBLES the KDE bar in various
Linux distros, (NOT just Ubuntu, geeze get a clue), I'll give it that,
but that's it period. The propaganda is astounding! LOL What a crock.
Win7 and Ubuntu are as close as Summer and Winter.

To Alias, NO, Win7 is nowhere close to an "imitation" of Ubuntu. The
Aero Glass bit is SIMILAR to what can be done in Compiz, but remember,
Windows Blinds has been doing the SAME thing for a LONG time. (Glass
look) I'm NOT advocating one thing or another here, just refuting false
claims. I happen to like my Ubuntu install, as well as my DOS, Win3.1,
Win98, Win XP Home and Pro, Win 2000, Win Vista Ultimate, Win 7 RC,
Elive, PClinuxos, TinyMe, Antix, DSL, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Puppy Linux,
Ubuntu Ultimate, Ubuntu Netbook Remix, etc, etc, installs. (YES I have
them ALL and more installed on various computers) I KNOW the
differences! Gimme a break. S-P-E-A-K T-H-E T-R-U-T-H ..For a change..

Oh, and I really need to add...

There are things in Linux I wish Windows would implement, (USEFUL Compiz
type features), and things in Windows I wish Linux would implement.
That's why I run, (Have to), BOTH OS's, to get the best of BOTH worlds,
as I know you do Alias. (XP for gaming, Linux for other stuff.)

Aero is a cheap imitation of Compiz, as is Windows Blinds. The fact that
you have spent your life installing operating systems doesn't change
that fact.
