Turn your PC into a MAC (Mac XP)

6 November 2004 144 views 2 Comments

Want your PC to look like a MAC? Here’s a screenshot of my PC. I call it Mac XP! Pretty nice, eh? There’s a couple of programs that you need to run. You need Mobydock for the dock on the bottom of the screen. You also need WindowBlinds with the Mac Panther theme.

For the calendar on the desktop, you need a great little program called Rainlender. I changed my default skin on it to Shadow3 (English).

Ok, one more program (I know, I know, it’s a lot … but, if you just want one effect, you can do that by just installing the program that you need for your look). The drop shadows of the windows are a nice look on the MAC and it’s great to finally have it on the PC. It’s so aesthetically nice! The program is called Yzshadow.

One more thing (not program) … if you really want it to look like a MAC, you gotta have one of those nice nature desktop backgrounds or that aqua blue background. So, here are some backgrounds to use.

Oh, and if you use Trillian, here’s a skin for it to look like iChat on the MAC. It’s sweet! Although it will NEVER come close to Adium!

Ok, now I want screenshots of your desktop! Post it in the comments!

If you want more info and programs about this, go here.
