Mac OSX-style menubar
After browsing a bit in the Gallery, I see a few screenshots of desktops with a MacOS X style menubar, with floating icons that look to magnify. Is this a program? Is it available in GNOME / KDE? Any help would be appreciated, im a GUI nerd

Why do so many people try to make Linux look like Mac OSX! If you like the look that much then go out and buy a Mac! On a more serious note, try using XFCE4.2 environment on Fedora. In a shell type yum install xfce. After logging into XFCE environment change the theme to a Mac OSX aqua-like theme and it will resemble a mac a lot. It also runs faster than Gnome or KDE.

I don't want it to look like a Mac, I want it to be as useful as one. And I do have a Mac already, a Powerbook G4
Anywho, I am running FC3, will the XFCE4.2 environment work still?

Hehe. Good call.
I've got it working... sort of. I've got the icons up for mozilla, gaim, KDE Terminal, Gimp, Office Writer, MPlayer, End Session, followed by two green question marks. If I put my mouse over the question marks, it says KDE Desktop and Kicker. How do I get rid of them? More to the point, why are they even being displayed when my .order file looks like this:
#list of application to be displayed in the engage bar
firefox.eapp
Gaim.eapp
konsole.eapp
gimp.eapp
OpenOffice.org_1.1.3.eapp
xmss.eapp
mplayer.eapp
exit.eapp
#end list
