I would love to use the mac4lin or tiger or panther theme, but I cannot
get use to the traffic lights.  Are there any such themes that has the
same controls and colors as mac themes but yet keep the min, max, x
buttons intact as well as the current application icon in the left top?

I also could never get the menu to display like a mac in the gnome-panel
using Hardy.

So far out of the many themes I have viewed or installed, I always seem
to navigate back to Human.
