andsome Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 When I had W98 SE the computer looked like W 98 SE. Now I have XP it looks like XP, if I eventually have a Vista computer it will look like Vista. What is the point in making a computer look like what it is not?

AlanHo Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 There is an easier way of getting your computer to look like Vista - do as I did and upgrade it to the real thing.Then it looks like Vista, performs like Vista and opens up new computing vistas.

andsome Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 I still can't understand why you would want XP to look like Vista. We will have Vista users wanting to make it look like XP or 98 next. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panarchy Posted September 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Okay guys!There are two new (fairly new) programs out there for converting XP to Vista (making it look like vista), and they are QT Crumbs Address Bar (the awesome address bar of vista) and QT Tab (adds tabs to Explorer [XP & Vista] and adds the ability to use vista back/forward button and some other very handy features.QT Crumbs Address BarQT TabPlease add them to my first post.Panarchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I get the impression that most of us prefer W98 to look like W98, XP to look like XP and Vista to look like Vista. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panarchy Posted September 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 :DBut you never know, there may be someone who comes onto this forum, see's the guide... and is happy with what he see's. He/she may even download all the programs mentioned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
