Windows XP Makeover

Maybe I'm a really odd person, but one of the reasons I use XP and dislike OS X (and ambivalent about Win7) is that I really do like the taskbar and start menu implementations in XP, over and above the equivalent implementations in other OSes.<p>That, and Windows Explorer, are the main reasons I never moved to Vista.

As a counter argument to this, consider this blog post, called "Living with defaults": <a href="http://www.oreillynet.com/mac/blog/2007/10/living_with_defaults.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.oreillynet.com/mac/blog/2007/10/living_with_defau...</a>

It slows down the system a bit though.
