I found this incredibly compiled list of the dozens and dozens of items it would take to upgrade your plain ole’ Windows XP machine into a Vista ‘clone’, but only using modifications, add-ons and tweaks. I couldn’t tell you if all of these work, but that would be a question for the blogger. They have however, definitely taken some time to put it together, so it may be worth a shot on one of your older XP machines.
I can only imagine how bogged down it would get after adding that amount of resources to your background processes. Please, someone get back to me after they’ve tried.

I am a long time techaholic, blogger and IT administrator living in the Midwestern United States. I have been associated with computers and technology almost my entire life. The obsession started when I first set my eyes on one of the Atari Entertainment Systems and hasn't stopped since.
My Dad paid $3000+ for a state of the art PC back in the day, and I have been on one almost my entire life since. It's truly an addiction that I will never give up.
Along with my Tech addiction, I also enjoy scouring blogs and the web for anything that may be interesting to write about. My posts are displayed here at TheWindowsFix, MakeUseOf and ConnectedInternet.
