This is a bit off topic, but I know there are a few sysadmin/unix
weenies that hang out here (myself included) so this might be of
interest to a few people.
Flightdeck-UI is an open source/free software project that utilizes the
ideas in aircraft controls and instruments design for creating general
purpose user interfaces.

That's intriguing in and of itself. From the screeshots
(http://www.openlight.com/fdui/screens.html) and demo
(http://www.openlight.com/fdui-panels/) it appears to be most useful as
a system (or multi variable) monitoring tool.
I'm not sure if it's poised to knock KDE/Gnome off the top of the heap,
but it's an interesting project.
Regards,
Curt.
