also please remember you can only get true feeling of a different OS thats made from the same company as the OS from a CD…not a small sized file…

which in this case the OS thing on here is eing install improperly….DO NOT DOWNLOAD

and why do you need to disable UAC to install it?
because if you do disable UAC thats where the viruses are planted and its where the password to protect your username is stored making it seem that that’s wheere the newer files are stored..aka the viruses,a nd trojans

and where they stated that you can uninstall it it just informs you of what you can do..it doesnt seem to explain how its done…making it more like a virus because the virus doesnt want to be removed

the purpose of this program is to trick people into thinking its a MAC based OS when its a virus but just looks like a mac…

this can be removed with a malware removal

to publishers: you guys are idiots…i mean the guys who posted this stuff and claim that it will work on WINDOWS when its only compatible with APPLE…whats suspectible is that the publishers claim that you take actions to disable the UAC whereas you shouldnt simply because the UAC detects what is being downloaded

AND those “posters” keep putting in the same lines of text explaining what it does and how to do it along with their informal intentions that they have not tried it out yet - whereas in this case they only sstate that they havent tried it is because they know there’s a high level threat of a trojan seeking into your computer which would most likely affect some majot files and cause major damage

and lastly beware YOU CANNOT REPLACE WINDOWS WITH APPLE - in this case only the MAC OSX can be run on apple, never on windows

Is there a way to make Vista OS X work on Vista Basic? Because I can get the cursors and the dock and wallpaper but not the theme.

By: Tom Durkee

I installed VistaOX about 6 months ago. I haven’t had any problems and it is great for people who like the look of OS X but still like the functionality of Windows. I didn’t get any viruses whatsoever (and I’m running 3 virus programs)so I believe it is safe. Another thing for you whiny people who are like “after I uninstalled it it messed up my system”, if you didn’t want it permanently, then why install it? To Waste Your Life Maybe? Other Than That I Think The Software is great for my laptop (Toshiba with 2GB RAM and 160GB HDD(running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1)). Also, just a note, doesn’t interfere with the downloading of windows automatic updates either.

Actually, I just noticed that v4 is the version I tried. From every official mirror I download it from, Avast finds that it contains several Trojans, and if I continue installing, I get several errors. If I click Continue on all of them, the installer seems to continue like it should, and eventually tells me to reboot. But, of course, when I restart, everything is exactly the same as it was before. I’ve looked in the Themes folder, and in the mouse cursors, but nothing new is there.

No comments about v3.
Did someone try the new version (V4)… maybe a good video will be cool to see before installation and the official site only delivers snapshots. But at this link http://fr.youtube.com/user/edvdesign we can see a good demo of OS X integrated in VISTA.

I suggest that you do NOT install this. There are many flaws in this and the uninstallers both (the one in the Vista OS X folder and the Vista OS X website) don’t do ANYTHING. Now my computer’s crapped up so whatever you do, do NOT use this no matter what!

Installing this software to my Vista OS caused me every problem! First off, it doesn’t do what it claims to and it leaves the system to look like awful… and second it doesn’t unistall itself from your system even if you use they provided uninstaller!

I suggest not to use this software no matter what!

[...] Theme Windows Vista OS-X-Style with Vista OS X For all you guys who want that look of a Mac but don’t have the money or like your current computer! enjoy! Windows Vista only: Windows XP users with a serious Mac crush have FlyakiteOSX to make their desktop resemble, if not work like, a Mac, but Vista users�even those upgraded to Service Pack 1�now have Vista OS X for a similar OS paint job. The installer (unfortunately) requires that you disable User Account Control to move forward, but you’ll get screensavers, wallpapers, a "Dock," and more goodies, all accessible from the basic "Themes" menu. The gHacks blog states that the theme completely uninstalls itself when you’re ready to move back to Windows; I haven’t tried it myself, so let us know your experiences in the comments. Vista OS X is a free download for Windows Vista systems only. Vista OS X [via gHacks] [...]
