[Windows only] Are you a windows user that admires the Mac interface? You can install the entire Mac OSX Leopard on your PC but if you are not ready convert fully yet, you can try FlyAKiteOSX.
FlyAKiteOSX is a free windows application that upon install, replace your windows interface giving it a MacOS look and feel.
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. FlyakiteOSX DOES NOT contain any spyware or ad-ware of any kind. All files needed for FlyakiteOSX are stored in the Windows directory in a folder named ‘FlyakiteOSX’ that is hidden by default. All registry values for FlyakiteOSX are written to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FlyakiteOSX.
FlyAKiteOSX will also skin alot of other Windows applications’ interface, that includes WinDVD, MSN, WinRAR, PowerDVD. It also comes with a apple boot screen. Pretty interesting.

to abi..
i’ve used flyakite [for OSX] and VTP8 [for Windows XP] and i find both very fun and interesting to use AND most importantly it reverts back to the default without much problem. for me of course.
:D

I guess these applications are for Windows users to get a feel of how Mac looks like, but to really get the user experience of a Mac, u really need a Mac.

This is like so last century… I wonder if the guys behind flyakite are working on converting Vista…
