Windows look and feel for Mac OS X?

[Rehan]

I have a Mac but I hardly ever use it because I'm so at home with Windows XP now that OS X seems like a strange place. I want to like OS X, but it just hasn't grown on me.

So I thought maybe I could start by making things a little more familiar.

Is there any way to make OS X look more like Windows XP? (Actually, I use the Windows Classic theme/style in XP, so the Windows 2000 kind of theme would be even better. Old skule. :razz: )

thats a good question.

I think osx's interface is better than windows xp/vista, the only reason why I'm not on it 24/7 is because I don't have the network driver and because of gaming. Otherwise Garageband, final cut studio and the editing stuff are so

cool! it's so easy to use! just like a game!

I'm curious, how long have you had your mac?

Rehan,

Why don't you just use Parallels and run Windows inside Mac OS X. You'll be able to use Windows on your Mac, and get re-acquainted with OS X.

I ended up doing something even better though... I have dual monitors, so I set up Synergy (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) with the PC on one monitor and Mac on the other.

It may not be long now until I go to Mac full time. :)
