Alpha releases of Windows 7 have been floating around for months now.

Is it any good?
I am assuming not since there's no program compatibility but hey


It's like vista but more buggy it seems.

There's no reason to use it this early in development.

QTF!

So that app is WIP, eh? Well, I hope we get to see what it is soon :3 I'll post my desk soon too, since I haven't posted in forever.

Edit: Hey rs4, how do you make the top bar to look like that? (Where your windows are like Firefox and stuff). I've been using ObjectBar forever, but my problem with it is

-Ugly skins
-Doesn't show minimized windows

I do use MiniMize, but it works really wonky for me. For example, it refuses to minimize Firefox no matter what I do. Also, it will sometimes think a window is minimized, so when I go minimize something else, it will skip that spot and leave a huge gap between windows.

We call that a "task bar". Most Windows users seem to be familiar with it.

You need the uxtheme patch google xp uxtheme patch

The icons can be found at deviantart.com by searching white mark icons

the dock is rocket dock.

@ Warcueid
The taskbar/visual style is called SlanXP found here (for Vista) - http://psycob.deviantart.com/art/SlanXP-Ed...aBasic-68107481

Read the info, he does have a link to the XP version but it doesn't exactly look the same. Hopefully this is what you're looking for.

About the minimizer thing, I use Thumbwin instead, which doesn't have as many problems as other apps but not something I'd constantly leave on either. Or you could have a second instance of Object dock running that specifically works just for the thumbnails when you minimize something.

@ Juggernaut
WIP as in work in progress lol.
