hmmm - new one I havent heard of - thanks for the link.

The only problem I find with these programs are they are sometimes buggy and most of the time dont work the way I want them to. No matter what - I always come back to my original version of windows.

Not to say it’s perfect either 😉

I don’t like the winXP look. I have mine set to the standard windows interface. Definitely less processor intensive. I do like skinned windows systems, but I don’t have a program to do it.

Not to mention my sisters are computer illiterate and I don’t want to confuse them too much. Make them think they have to relearn how to use computers or something.

I used to care about what my OS looked like but then i realized whats the point. It just eats up RAM and how often do you sit and stare at your desktop. I usaly have 5 things open and runing so whats the point of fancying up something I hardly ever look at

You know, I have to take back what I said before… kind of.

As I usually dont like this stuff - it’s too cluttery and it never works properly, this new “objectdock” is fantastic!

if any of you have used the Macintosh X OS you will know how cool the menu system is and this copies it almost PERFECT! and there are great icons on the internet to use along with it. I used to have the “my computer” toolbar across the top of my computer so I could get to my different drives faster but now I have the ObjectDock there and it works great!

Seriously - you should check it out.
