Just like Gucci bags on NY street-corners, make Tiger into Leopard

Lipstick on a Pig Appletell has put together an interesting list of ways (currently down, try this if it still is) to make Tiger into Leopard. It may be a trite simile, but this transformation is a bit like putting lipstick on a pig. That said, a quick review of their suggestions is in order.

  1. Use SuperDuper instead of Time Machine. They’re both backup software, but that’s where the similarity ends. Not really a great suggestion in my book.

  2. Instead of Spaces, use VirtueDesktop or Desktop Manager.

  3. Put folders into the Dock in place of stacks.

  4. Use a theme called Liger to simulate the interface.

  5. Use a Finder replacement.

  6. Use ChatFX to do more with iChat.

  7. A widget from fondantfancies.com let’s you simulate the web page cropping widgets now.

Like I said, this is lipstick. Personally, I think I can wait a month or two.
