It's not that hard to do what you want with any Windows from 95/NT4 and up. |

If you want to do it for the look... well, I feel sorry for you, your eyes, and your monitor...
Feel sorry for me, my eyes, and my moniter then! |

I want to make everything look like DOS. DOS cursers, DOS windows, DOS font, DOS-Looking taskbar, the works. Anyone know of any themes for any programs that will do this? |
