Step1: Getting the Dock 

Alright so what you first need to make your PC to look like a mac Is you need a Dock so you have something to put your desktop icons onto your Object Dock What you first need to do is go to google and type in star dock. Then you should find a link going there. Next you download the program and install in to your PC and then you can delete your shortcuts and drag your icons from the start menu.

Tip: If you take your shortcuts and drag it onto your object dock sometimes it will not work right because of the directory from your PC's C:drive.

After you have that done go onto the next step.

Here is the link if you don't wanna try and find it on google.

Step 2: Getting the Finderbar

Alright so you got your dock now you need your FinderBar so here is what you need to do to get your finder bar. You can go to Google and type in finder bar for the first link on your search results or the link here :

Next when the page loads look down and download the link that says Version 1.5 with 2090 kb.

Before you install the program make sure your windows Task bar is on the top so when you install the the finder bar is at the top. make sure you have no auto hide or launch feature on your windows task bar. then after you have it installed make sure to skin it after you installed it to get rid of errors and make it look like a mac. The when you open up windows it should look like a macs window when it pops up.

Step 3: Getting a Mac Background 

Alright for the background just pick out a back ground from going to google and typing in images:

mac wallpaper

mac background

or

mac symbol (This one doesn't have much but the other 2 do! =D )

So When picking your Background make sure it shows up clearly on your desktop.

Enjoy your background! =D
