Mac themes are awesome.
I am seriously considering downloading this but have a few concerns that maybe some of you can answer?
I like how I have everything currently regarding where my icons are, etc. I have most of them pinned to my start menu, etc. My concern is what if I don't like the Mac theme program for some reason or don't like where it puts everything. Can I switch views back and forth between PC and Mac? Is this program easy to uninstall without ruining my settings?
Will this work with Mozilla Firefox?

Thanks for any help !!

Most Desktop theme programs allow you to save your current theme. You should be able to change back anytime. But i'm unsure since i usually stick to the default themes. I find them simple, and clean. But i'm a minimalist I don't like the clutter of desktop items and programs.

MmmmGood, I was just about to download that this morning, or at least the trial one. But figure I will do it after work. Is is worth it? Do you like it? Are there any issues? How much does the program cost if I decide to keep it? There is no price on the web site. Will it slow my system down?
Thanks. Sorry about all the questions. :)

I love it. It's very easy to change between themes and you can get a TON of them at http://themexp.org/

I dont remember the cost for it but it was very reasonable. I purchased mine.
