Wednesday, May. 11 2005 | Author: Nicole

Many a Windows user secretly harbors a love for the aquafied look of Mac OSX. Okay, what they really want is a Mac, but, failing that, the OSX look will have to do. And there’s FlyakiteOSX to make it easy.

FlyakiteOSX is a transformation pack. It will transform the look of an ordinary Windows XP+ system to resemble the look of Mac OS X. The installer simply automates the process of replacing critical system files, setting registry tweaks, and installing extras such as cursors, sounds, visual styles, etc.

Go ahead — aquafy yourself.

Hehe. I came across this one after checking out links for my XP Desktop in CSS. Sorry folks, it’s only a mock flash thing! Hehe. Extremely well done though!

However, Engadget have an article which gives you all the tools you need to /really/ change your PC though. Check it out http://www.engadget.com/entry/8828351836181248/

Actually, if you look at the downloads link, there is the program.

Just installed it: nice results and no big hit on my resourses. Man, I’m a poser :p

As Manny said, it is in fact a program and not just a flash app.

Erixer, I saw that just after I posted this. Consider yourself ahead of the curve. :)

Sorry, Griffith — and I also now see that Flyakite was recommended in the comments of your article.
