what is your graphic card?

NVIDIA GEFORCE 6150SE nForce 430

that sounds more like a northbridge than a graphics card

The pixels are smoother and more “analog” in Windows because of Microsoft’s proprietary DSP processing. You tend to get some low-frequency “drift” in Linux and in OSX everything is too sharp and “digital.” Windows has a warmer and more organic feel. It’s like you’re looking “through” the windows rather than “at” them.

I don’t know what it is, it’s just how it feels, I recognize a windows machine no matter what skin is installed, but when Aero is enabled and the new Vista cursor is in use, it feels almost exactly like using a mac, so I always revert to aero basic and the XP cursor when I can.
