Sounds fantastic !
Thanks for passing this information along....
GVI on MAC, Gigastudio 64 bits... I hope it'll stop the bleeding of sound developpers going to Kontakt & VSL taking their own approach ... etc

Yep ! Of course. I have an Ipod. :D
I'm on PC and I have the stylexp mac os look thingy installed. That's it as far as my personnal Macintosh daily use.

Sitll, I see it as a huge bonus for Mac users and the Giga platform futur.

Sure Eminardi. Here's a screenshot of how it looks under Nuendo
I use Style xp from TGT SOFT
Download the Male package and apply the Panther theme and the XP i Candy icon set.
Then in options tick use no system ressources.

Enjoy your Mac OSX looking PC !

Additionally, you can add the OSX dock bar but it's a ressource hog, so do it only if you're on multiproco system.

Or if you want to go further, try the OSx86 project to have a MAC os running natively (no PPC emulator) on your PC....

Sorry for the Hijack Jimmy :)

I actually use StyleXp myself, as I find it more more stable way of enabling loading of styles and unsigned themes than by using the uxtheme.dll hack method. I never liked windowblinds. I do manually kill the StylexpService after boot though (can't recall if that's what 'use no resources' does or not). I actually don't even use the StyleXP UI to change settings, just to enable the ability to do so.

Currently I'm running the latest version of Royale Vista but my favorite theme by far has to be XPMC Induztry. Nice & minimal win2k look but cleaner on the eye imo. The lack of heavy gradients and transparent curved edges (which most themes have in abundance) means that it's the same performance hit as using the 'classic' theme. Also it should be noted that XPMC cannot be loaded via stylexp as it causes a crash. When I use that theme or style I have to select it via the desktop properties ctrl panel.

Usually I'll setup a nice style, background (solid black most likely for me) and NO sounds and save a custom theme from the desktop properties panel. Save it under %Windir%/resources/Themes/ and edit that in the future to avoid having sounds etc reapplied each time (which sytlexp has an annoying habit of doing).
