n00b question
« on: January 31, 2008, 11:13:29 PM »
Howdy.
I was wondering, is there an easy and authentic way to get Microsoft Windows Vista to look exactly like the Amiga Workbench?
I have heared that a program called WindowBlinds makes it look like it but it isn't free.
I also heared that there is a version of the AmigaOS that works on a PC? Is that true and if so, where is it please?
Failing that what emulator is recommended? WinUAE or Amiga Forever or something else?

My system is:
AMD 64 Dual Core
2 nVidia 8800 Ultimate overclocked GFX cards in SLi config
1TB HDD
4GB RAM

So should be able to run most emulators.
I'd rather have Amiga style on my PC as unfortunately the PC runs my daily needed programs that my A4000 doesn't.


I also have Ubuntu Linux (Fiesty Fawn) as my system is dual boot, so if there is a conversion for that please?
