These are 5 new skins from Alienware that change the way you look at windows. Its easy, just download,install and pick a new skin. Some have a look similar to Vista and others are more sci-fi. Check it out you wont go back to regular XP theme.

I just use Windowblinds, which is the full Stardock program. Interesting themes, though.

there's actually an XP theme out that makes your OS look exactly like Vista. It's called the Vista Transformation Pack

That's good news for people who can't afford to upgrade to Vista.

of course that transformation pack has been known to cause more than a few issues with XP

Beryl is a pretty cool looking UI. I just use WinFX to spice up my XP installation a bit.

I was a beryl fan for awhile but beware with the 7950GTX. It has a few issues at least with the drivers I was using. Window compositing worked flawlessly with my 6800 Ultra inside the M1710 so I'm sure its not a big issue. I will retry with my 7950 after my weekly (hehe) reformat with newer drivers.

I just use KDE now but I'd say that Beryl >> Vista UI. Plus Beryl never fails in impressing the girls.
