This should probably go in another area, but having long since used OSX and having to buy Candybar and Pixadex to customize the look of OSX, Windows XP can sure teach OSX a lesson.

http://www.crystalxp.net/bricopack/ provides free (icon + packs) to totally transform your XP environment.
I went straight to the Crytal Pack for more of that "down-home OSX feel" or go Linux.....

I know its eyecandy, but.....

Something to have fun with until we get the sound and graphics working.:)

I had no idea that Windows had so many customizable features.

Download the Vista brico pack and enable the ubericon.

WOW.... eyecandy and an OSX dock.

I have the vista pack installed. VERY nice, but the sidebar doesn't work. I know though, for the OS X look, FlyaKite is definitely worth a mention
