Look, we’re not one to judge. We’re not sure why you’d want to make Windows XP look like OS X, but there must be some of you out there that do. Perhaps you’re the type who’d do it just to say you’ve done it, or for some other sort of novelty. Either way, the above video will give you a step by step on how to make your half-assed-looking XP look shiny and new like X.

Of course, it’s just looks; the real flaws and bloat of XP remain intact. But at least it’s pretty.

  • Why??

    Why is it that people assume the MAC OS is more exciting??
    I just want to run my favorite apps, all of which are not MAC apps.

  • MAC OS is not more exciting. People just like following trends, or whatever is cool at the moment like yo yo’s, pokemon, pogs, blogs, ridding of human waste. Damn. We just need to be ourselves.

  • It is bizarre that is even a story here because you could do this 5 years ago. Also, it isn’t a pretty as numerous other skins that you can apply. At least to my eyes, OS X is looking long in tooth at this point and I’m not nearly as pleased with it as I was back in 2004 when it really did seem shiny.
