Let's face it. After 5 years of looking at Windows XP it gets tiring seeing the same old screen day after day. Well WindowsBlinds has a quick and easy solution to this problem and can dress up that old look for you. I was just over at the WindowsBlind site and noted that had a Vista look-a-like available. They are calling it Vista Plus and it looks very, very close to Vista itself. No exact, but close. WindowsBlinds have two methods in which the user can select. The Free stuff or a $19.95 or higher subscriptions, for their deluxe features. The high end stuff is for those who REALLY want to have total control of their systems and allows the user to configure everything. Taking a tour of the site is a adventure in itself. There are no less than 503, yes 503, pages of stuff! If you can't find something of your liking on this site, than I don't believe it has been made yet. Check the system requirements to confirm your PC can use WindowsBlinds: "System Requirements:
- Windows XP/2003 and Windows Vista (when available). Windows 2000, ME, 98 users can use WindowBlinds Classic (v4.6).
- 1GHz or faster processor recommended
- 60MB free drive space
- 256MB RAM
- Note: A 16MB DirectX 8 or later compatible video card with appropriate driver support is required for per-pixel alpha-blended skins. Some integrated graphics solutions and lower-end cards from before 2004 may not be able to use per-pixel skins."
