How to make your PC look like a mac.


Ok, ok!!! to all those of you who may get mad at me for liking macs... I like PC's too. I personally own a mac, but run windows on it. I then make my pc look like a mac, but run like a pc. Yup... that sounds weird. Your probably asking... "David, why don't you just use your mac as a mac, and not a pc if you like it to look like a mac? Well its like I say about some of my friends, "looks aren't everything." j/k. The thing is, some of us like mac, but have so much software for windows that it would suck to have to give it all up, just to move to mac, if you have a few extra dollars to blow on one that is. So here it is... (How to make your PC look like a mac.)

1. Make sure your task bar at the bottom is unlocked. To check, right click on a blank part of the bar and see if "lock the task bar" is checked or not. If it is, un check it.

2. Click and hold onto the task bar and drag our mouse to the top of the screen. This will move the task bar up to the top, like a mac :)

3. Go to this website and download then install this object dock. Its that cool bar that is in mac that has the icons expand as you move your mouse across them.

4. Go to this website to get a cool OS X or Mac wallpaper

5. Move your icons to the right side of the screen, because that is how the mac does it.

That would be it! Hope you like your new found mac!
