Style XP has an OS X theme.

It has a 30 day trial.

I have always liked the look of Apple Computers but I find that a lot of software doesn't support that kind of Operating System. Shame because I think people underestimate Apple OS.

My g/f has a powerbook that she loves. She named it 'Bumby'
Its really cool, and its great for photoshop and video editing. And the dock...in the beginning its REALLY annoying. Like WHY IS MY ICON BOUNCING DEAR *** I WANT TO SMASH IT annoying.
But it grows on you. And once you have it setup to auto hide its pretty handy.

If you are still wondering, check out Deviantart's Style section, they have a lot of themes and a neat app named yzdock that simulates the Apple bar.
