Download WindowBlinds free version here:
http://www.stardock.com/products/windowblinds/downloads.asp then download ObjectDock free version here: http://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/ WindowBlinds allows you to totally change the theme of your computer, and ObjectDock is the menu bar on a Mac computer. If you have any questions, just post here. |

Been there, done that, got the T shirt
 It was cool for a while, but isn't very friendly on your computer. I also tried VistaOSX for a bit when windows blinds trial ran out. |

Nah, Windows blinds is bad because you have to pay for it.
Download VistaGlazz (download.com) or a uxtheme patcher if you have xp. Run it, restart, you'll now be able to use 3rd party themes. Go to DeviantArt and look up a Mac theme, download, set it as your theme, put the bar at the top then download rocket/object dock and use it. |

I tried getting a Hackintosh once, then I realized it was illegal.
 Still, this is pretty close to it. ~D |

Looks cool but I have to share my computer with 2 other people so not worth the yelling at me saying "Blah I don't know how to use this.. Blahh blah!"

I'd rather have a very simple skin (not Caboose simple ), but simpler than Vista's.I use the MaxClear theme with a custom start menu button.

Funny how no one mentioned FlyAKiteOSX. It's the most thorough reskinning of a PC I've ever seen, although it only works on XP.

I'm even considering switching to High Contrast. I kid, but i might if it didn't change the actual webpages. |
