It will take a little bit of work, but the results are pretty interesting

If you are still using that ugly and old Windows XP, you can now transform it completely into a beautiful and accurate Ubuntu look-alike.

Windows XP is showing its age, and in April it will reach end of life. If you still want to pimp it up a little, now there is a way to make it look like Ubuntu. The resemblance is uncanny.

A user (EBR-KII) on deviantart.com has managed to gather the required resources to make his Windows XP look like genuine Ubuntu OS.

As you can see from his post, he is using a lot of applications and he even had to make some his own folder icons because they didn't fit the general style.

After all the changes have been applied, you should be sporting a much better looking Windows XP and maybe it will be enough to convince you to switch to Linux and Ubuntu.
