At bottom right you see the weather icon thingy. What's the name of this program and where can I find that skin if it's additional? Thanks!
That weather icon thingy you're referring to is available through Yahoo Widgets.

Looks like ObjectDesktop or something similar to me...probably a freeware alternative out there though.

Heh. I had to do a double take. I just half glanced and thought it was a Mac desktop.

I haven't read, looked at, or listed to a single thing about Vista. It is a freaking clone of OS X.

Big & high res tool bar that scrolls across the bottom - Check
Actual pictures of a hard drive for an icon - Check

Looks like a Panther desktop to me.

WoW you fooled me, I thought that you were speaking seriously; no, I don't think that was sarcasm.
