I just booted a live Kubuntu and just switched the launcher, removed the activities / show desktop / virtual switcher widgets, switched the desktop from widget to folder mode, and added a quicklaunch widget. Looks and feels exactly like XP at that point. The only exception would be the file manager.
And it is not like you wouldn't be deploying custom images to all your machines - you could tweak all the theming to use MS Windows styles. Hell, some people even got KDE looking like 7 years ago: http://www.lirent.net/2009/05/windows-7-transformation-pack-for-linux/ http://www.lirent.net/2009/05/windows-7-transformation-pack-...
- mpyne 13y ago> Looks and feels exactly like XP at that point. Did you remember to remap Alt-F2 for Krunner (which looks nothing like on XP...) to Win-R? Did you fix the Lock Screen to look exactly like XP? I can tell you as a KDE dev myself that although you can do amazing things regarding look-n-feel, there is still a big difference. Even on things that are not very different between the two, that simply becomes an "uncanny valley".
