The best part about it is that if you find something you don't need/want, you can uninstall it. Oh and I just remembered, you have to have winblinds installed for it to work to it's full potential.

OSX is designed around Mac hardware and is optimized for it, this is a big part of the reason it runs so nicely, alot of this performance is lost on other systems.

If you are looking to install a better looking operating system rather than just looking for a nice skin then you are much better off looking at various linux distros rather than looking at mac os. Most are free and serve as a great way to learn more about your computer.
