I used to use Flyakite (http://www.osx-e.com/downloads/misc/flyakite_osx.html), but unfortunately the beautiful OSX-like website is gone, and development is off...pity...

The ultimate irony...
A Macintosh running on Intel, booting to Windows with a hack to make it look like a Macintosh.... :eek:

Another irony:
As with many people who try and make their PCs Windows-like, I used the default Apple desktop on my PC, but not on my Mac when I got it. Think about it, most 'fakes' use that desktop (I wonder if they'll use the Leopard one in a few weeks) but hardly any Mac users use it...

Sadly enough I agree as well.. I even used the new space desktop for about three days, then switched back to my lovely picture of the Porsche. :D
Either way apple's stock images are a million times better than window's.

Not to mention this "out there" graphic...
I love using Windows B/grounds on my MBP just for the "WTF?" effect

My brother has recently bought a new media PC that came with Windows Vista installed and it's actually quite nice. Especially the 'Media Centre' software.

I agree, but I don't think this has quite the same ring to it... <see below>
But seriously, I'm actually considering getting a winbox to complement my MBP because I want something I can shove a few HDD's into, and a new P Mac is just way too expensive, while older P Macs have hardware limitations, so each to their own I guess :).
