Wired: PC users envy the Mac?
Friday, April 30, 2004 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Let's face it, lots of PC users want to make Windows look like a Mac. There are all kinds of reasons for this. Some people just love Apple and want to do their part to promote the Mac -- even on their own PC. Other people just like the look and feel of the Mac but can't afford it or want the compatibilty of the PC.
Whatever the reason, one thing is for sure, some of the most popular skins and themes on the net come from people trying to make Windows feel a bit more like a Mac.

What one could do is grab the darwin kernel which was recompiled to run on x86 processors and dissappear for about 3 years rewriting hardware drivers and the aqua gui to really have a macwintosh computer. I may be overboard but i'm very cheap! I adore this community

How much is Microsoft Office for the MAC? and why should there be, because Billy Gates says so. Has a lot of money tied up in Apple and if he didn’t apple would be dissolved today.

Very cool, but can freak out hard-core windows users. I did this once using litestep, etc, and the results were awsome
