I have been messing with changing the way my computer looks and works. Such programs as WindowBlinds, Hoverdesk, DesktopX, and AstonShell have been my favorites. Right now I’m using AstonShell. Aston actually replaces your windows shell program, which is based on Internet Explorer, called iexplore.exe if I remember correctly. The Aston shell is written to take up less resources, crash less, and run faster. So far it has done all of those things on my PIII 1gighz machine. Windows has been crashing non stop due to lack of system resources. In Aston everything runs a lot better. Of course, my favorite thing about Aston is that it is fully skinnable. There are tons of themes out for it, and it is easy to modify them or make your own. Aston also gives you a sort of active desktop.. letting you add things like e-mail checkers, and animated icons. If you are tired of the Windows interface, I suggest you check one of these programs out.
Sorry about the tri-post. I made an error while linking to the website for those programs and it messed Blogger up somehow. I’m working on trying to delete those other two posts… but Blogger doesn’t like it at all.
