I don't think you can make a Mac look like that :P.  It almost looks like it could be Vista with a skin, but I've never had the opportunity to use Vista so don't know what you can do with it.  Alternatively, I'm tempted to guess some Linux distro with Halo, Xfire, and Ventrilo running either via WINE or virtualization.

Window, so I can keep track of other stuff on Vent, Xfire, and double check the IP's whenever I go into a server.  If I'm playing a scrim, then it's full screen all the way.  That's why I'd like to get a second screen.

Listen to the Muzak

I just saw the C D E drivemeters anyway. Linux doesn't do that, it's "/dev/hda1" "/dev/hdb1" "/dev/hdb2", all depends on how your drives are set up.

Heh, it's Windows XP, customized to look cool :D

The background and sidebar is the result of a program called DesktopX Builder and the bottom row is a separate program called Object Dock.

Fix'd the dock thing. (I like fixing program names. heh)

And does the background MOVE or something? :-O

Nope, I use ObjectDock, not Rocket Dock.

Here's a link:

The background isn't animated, it's just a cool-lookin' wallpaper. I think the animated themes only work in Vista.
