Yep i used rocketdock ... freeware program.
And i downloaded some cool icon packs. I also had to do some registry tweaks and stuff to change some icons like My Movies and stuff.

Thanks for the replies

I'm still working on my Start menu cause i used a them to get it black but there is still a wallpaper in what i dont like. So have to remove those. After i'm completly done i will post an updated movie again

Ummm... I dont think you have to use registry tweaks to change icons? Use something like Iconpackager or whatever that thing was. But... as far as I remember, there was deffinitely a way to change icons without registry buttsex.

Dude, just get a Mac and you're done. It's the most beautiful and nicest computer ever.

However most people can't afford one, so they just choose to bash Apple Cool Face

Meh...

Mac is like a girl having a great body with an ugly head.
Windows is like a pretty girl with a bad body.

This is like combining the better parts to make it better.

BTW... anyone who knows how to change the start button in windows 7 ?? Can't find a sollution anywhere Sad .... like nobody knows how to do it.

+1 Razz

To expand, I don't find docks very appealing, and seeing all the stacked really make me hate the idea even more. I find the search in Vista/7 start menu (and in KDE's new start menu) much more productive.

Actually I thought Apple was gay when I was still into PC gaming. Turns out the Mac OS is very user friendly, and the new Snow Leopard is faster than Windows. PC's may have better specs than Mac (including cheap Chinese plastic exteriors), but that doesn't mean much if the OS is crap. I'd keep a PC handy for gaming and movie encoding... while the real work gets done on a Mac.

PS A sneak peek at the new Apple tablet http://thenextweb.com/2009/09/06/apple-itablet-concepts-guaranteed-drool/?awesm=tnw.to_13JD&utm_campaign=thenextweb&utm_medium=tnw.to-twitter&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_content=twitter-publisher-main Twisted Evil

And now I should probably STFU about Apple before I start I fanboy flamewar Wink

Funny how you mention you keep Windows for gaming and encoding, but "real" work is done on the Mac. What would that "real" work be? Spreadsheet and document editing? Laughing

As a tiny example of how your statement is wrong, take a loot at Photoshop, a landmark Adobe brag point at the past, now has a 64-bit version only for Windows. Hmm... Wink
Also, beware your user friendly OS, it might delete all your data. Laughing "Crap OS" you say? Laughing

[/fanboy]

BTW, there was nothing fanboyish about my post, it is just mere stating of facts. Smile

Yea Mac's are pretty horrible.

I for one love the simplicity of the Windows taskbar and start menu now. I really just find nothing appealing about them.

Lathieza, why not use Process Explorer as the task manager? It is really invaluable if you are a poweruser. Smile
