Ubuntu Guide posted a simple tutorial to show you how to install a Windows 7 theme and tweak your Ubuntu desktop to make it look more like Windows 7

It’s not easy to configure the default Unity desktop’s left Launcher, so I used the xfce desktop.

To get started, follow the steps below:

1. Install Xfce Desktop Environment:

Hit Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal window, copy and paste following command and hit run to install Xfce:

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

Once installed, log out and select “Xubuntu session” to log in again.
