(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I was on Youtube earlier and i wanted to see if i can make my laptop(vista) look like a Mac. Its actually quite simple, click You must login or register to view this content. and download the Rocketdock. If i'm not mistaken there is an instructional video on the main page.

EDIT: watch [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SJCPkCK634"]this[/ame] video, it is the more modern dock.


There is also a way to get the Mac task bar, but i found it kind of laggy, and I dont know if it was my connection or not, but my browser wouldnt load any pages after a while. You can try it, just click [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W43z6thKr0w"]Here[/ame].

*I think the lag problem was because it was from mediafire, but i'm sure there are plenty of other videos showing a more safe way.

Heres just a screenshot of the rocketdock with my vista task bar.

REASad Awesome The new video with the more modern dock was really laggy and locking up on me. I dont know if its my internet or connection or something, but if someone else can try it and post if it works. Same goes for the mac task bar, it messes up my connection i think.

For the more modern dock, it says the CPU usage is 100%, but i checked processes and nothing was more than like 06.

Wow... This brought back memories. I remember back when I had a PC I wanted to make it look like a Mac. The best way to do it was with Objectdock and Windowsblinds. (Both by Stardock) But I would seriously just recommend buying a Mac because no matter how much you modify on your PC it will never end up looking just like a Mac and it will most likely run a lot slower due to all of the things you have running to make it look that way. If you don't want to spend money on buying a Mac you could also try downloading the Mac OS X onto your PC but I wouldn't recommend it unless you really know what you're doing.

I think that the "laggy" dock is because of the file that was downloaded. I had downloaded another dock before and it was fine.
