it's called Zune and can be downloaded from here:

looks quite cool, not too sure what to make of the start button....

Slightly odd but I guess it's to go with the new Windows Vista release look as seen with the latest version of the media player. The start button is very distracting though.

There are better black themes out there (without the orange start button).

It's to go with the upcoming Zune player (iPod competitor) and music store software.

Thanks nidave, that looks great! Especially if you move the bar to the right and put a nice wallpaper on there.

I quite like it, especially when you play around with it and customise it how you want it to appear. Mine looks fab now (after hours of fiddling!)

Similarly...


...IMO just looks and feels far superior to the official one. I like this one so much that I haven't changed it in a long time.

You have the vista theme but you're using the 2003 version of word!?
If you want it all to match, Upgrade to Office 2007 pre-release and set the skin colour to black
