Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Does anyone know what GUI interface windows 95,98 or windows Me use?

Earlier versions of Windows use Windows Explorer as the GUI. The file is
explorer.exe. It is not to be confused with Internet Explorer. It is
multi-duty, part file manager, window manager, etc. I am no expert on
Windows, and I only know this because long before I quit using Windows, I
experimented with replacing the GUI and a part of that was replacing
explorer.exe with another desktop manager.

Nautilus works similarly in GNOME. If you don't believe me run it in XFCE or
KDE and you get the GNOME desktop replacing the XFCE or KDE one. To get it
to NOT do this you have to run it with a switch: nautilus --no-desktop. I
learned this the hard way. :)
