I personally like the context stuff, but the GEM and Workbench one's look better in the pictures due to the greater use of colour IMO.
Can definitely see a case for offering both, but that would probably reduce margins. I think the context at least demonstrates some sincere attempt to inject their own original design by arrangement of the windows, etc.
Saying that now, I wonder if they believed that to be necessary to sell the design, since otherwise there's nothing original about the design of the item they're selling.
I doubt these are actually in accordance with copyright anyway though, wonder how long it'll be until they get struck... With the exception of Windows and RISC OS, the owners of the copyrights on those UI designs basically exist purely to exploit trademarks they own now.
Or maybe they licensed them, or maybe this constitutes enough original design under UK copyright law. Dunno.
