well you'll have to nuke explorer - that means writign a native win32
replacement - gtk being ported wont help you there much. basically itsa
nto a matter fo a drop in replacement.. maybe some apps can run but you
wont be able to get an entire environment - not without lots of non
portable work. Feel free to do it yourself if you want it.
