Make Windows XP Look Like Vista or Windows 7

The How-To Geek had this advice and on how to transform your Windows XP computer desktop to look more like Windows Vista or the new Windows 7.

Great advice, neat article, looks easy enough.

But please note the asterisks under the first image “Editor Note:  Major modifications like these should be attempted with caution because it can create instability in XP.”

As I mentioned in a forum post this week to someone who was using Windows 7 RC-1 on a netbook: gorgeous interface doesn’t impress me near as much as reliability.

If you really want that new updated look and feel, I suggest you wait until year end and buy a Windows 7 upgrade.

I (and my clients) need our computers to work, not just look pretty.
