Hi,

Not sure about Windows, but there are Amiga-style themes for Linux.

For a basic Amiga-style window manager, check out AmiWM.

Or, if you're running a Gnome-based environment, how about the Amiga Bluetabs-Light theme.

You need to buy windows blinds. The trial version does not support custom downloaded skins.

I have tried two Amiga skins from wincustomize and they have just not look good. Both have some problems.

But there is a object bar theme on the sime website. It worths to tray.

I made this one a while ago, it works fine. My objectbar has gone from the wincustomize site though :(
