I was trying to convince myself that I wasnt trying to impersonate a mac but I am.
Everything is almost perfect!

You cant see it but I also have mac cursors.
And i know that the bar doesnt look as much like a mac but i think that looks better.
But back to the subject...I want a top bar thing like a mac has. I dont want it to show open programs but if i could put sound and battery and wireless netowrks on the right side of it. Even if it doesnt have file and edit and stuff sooo ummm...
I need a top bar. Any suggestions? I dont want to do any major system type changes. Maybe just a program or something.

the dock is a little off, too. OS X has a more glassy effect, partially transparent and crisp corners.

this might help: http://www.engadget.com/2004/06/09/turn-your-pc-into-a-mac/

also, if you have XP (not with service pack 3), this is perfect: flyakite. it sort of works with SP3, but there are a few bugs, and the author hasn't updated it in over a year.

object bar looks good...
And i know the bar isnt very mac like but like i said i like it better.
