Going to be installing linux on a Thinkpad T61 soon, and was looking around for recommendations on a modern linux GUI. Any recommended distros are welcome too.
Last time I ran linux as a home computer, it was back in the days of Gentoo 2, so KDE and Gnome were... primitive.
Generally when I work on Linux, its on servers and CLI, so I have very little experience in a xwindow/desktop environment.
What I have seen on a lot of screenshots are GUIs that look really sharp.
What I'm used to:
Windows 7 + Classic Shell + Areo gives a really nice look to windows, but I'd like to give linux another chance after 15 years
