Windows Vista AND LUNA!
The power (or horror) of WindowBlinds
Saturday, September 30, 2006 by Draginol | Discussion: Customization
So what would Windows Vista look like if it were running a Windows XP skin (via WindowBlinds for Windows Vista)?
The horror. The horror.
(before anyone asks, WindowBlinds for Windows Vista isn't available yet, it'll be on Object Desktop this Fall).

Sorry to be a pooper, but I'd have much preferred a new file system to desktop glam. They should just open the hooks to companies like Stardock and let them worry about aesthetics, and give people what they need, the most innovation and stability in the USE of their computer as humanly possible. Microsoft's s.o.p. seems to have become trickling out innovation so slowly that new OS versions don't have to compete with the innovation of the previous ones.
Sorry, sorry, /rant off. It's just that this screenshot struck an ironic chord with me. I think that the screenshot here is a bit more honest than MS is.

Hmm, that Solitaire would look hot on OS X. |
Maybe so, but me thinks it looks just fine on my PC with Vista decked out with a nice DesktopX theme and matching Objectdock to launch it from....oh, and CursorXP themed pointers to select cards, etc. Yep, they all work on Vista RC1 just fine, as does Winstep Xtreme.
Oh the possibilities are simply amazing....roll on VistaBlinds, Vista IP and all the other Stardock goodies.

Brad, I would like to see what an explorer window would look like in that skin.
