Ubuntu Apps to match Apple's OS X Lion?

  • 772

I'm writing a post about how the software updates Apple sent out have been on Ubuntu (and other Linux distros) for ages (like the app store and the new "Mission Control" feature) from here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/lion/

I was wondering if i can show that Ubuntu has had apps to match the other two features: Fullscreen apps and "LaunchPad"? Are there?

This would be useful for helping Apple users switch to Ubuntu also when I'm trying to convert them ;)

    Launchpad is basicaly the same as Unity. Mac App Store = Ubuntu Software Center. Full screen apps (as they'll work on Lion) depend on the apps developers. Mission Control is nearly the same as scale compiz plugin, but you can only manage windows.
