As for the tools used behind the scenes, the ISO was made with nLite 1.4.9.1, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 6.0, and the self-extractors were made with a mix of regular 7-Zip, SFXMaker 4.62 and ''many'' variations of modified WinRAR self-extractors. The ISO was finalized with UltraISO V9.2.
 
== Changes fromof Windowsthe XPOS SP3- on a grand scale ==
=== Minor, more miscellaneous changes ===
* The text-mode setup's OS text is changed to fit the OS. The one at the top is now labeled "Windows Xp Mac Os 2012 INSTALLATION", and the rest is labeled "Windows Xp Mac Os 2012".
* The text-mode setup's copying text is now labeled "For Windows Xp Mac Os 2012 Technical Support Please Call 011-0025203". Similarly, the OS name is changed to fit this one's. A phone number for technical support for this OS can be seen as well.
* A special post-setup macro routine which runs on startup has been added. The macro automatically creates shortcuts by taking control of the mouse and delicately positioning it in specific ways.
* A fully working Mac OS X Leopard style dock complete with beautiful skeuomorphic icons ripped straight from Mac OS itself has been added thanks to a program called RK Launcher being included, which now runs on startup and is positioned to the bottom, as it should be on Mac OS X.
* Many visual system elements such as window dialogs, menus and even the taskbar has been given a shadow with the exact precision which could only be ever replicated by the truly gifted sons of God, all thanks to a program called ''Y'z Shadow'' being included.
* The autorun has been completely replaced with a brand new one made with AutoPlay Media Studio 6.0.
* OEM branding has been added. The Support Information is also implemented as well.
 
=== Changes in pre-desktop procedures ===
* New setup graphics, with updated wallpapers and billboard descriptions. Leftover [[Windows Extreme Seven 2009]] branding is present.
* The setup routine has been modified to include additional software packaged in a 7-Zip self-extracting archive, which will be installed during the Setup.
* The OOBE segment has been completely removed as part of the unattended setup. Only the OOBE video, and the pre-OOBE segment remains.
* New login graphics. It has been carefully edited to look exactly identical to the Mac OS X login screen. It is based on the Graphite version of Mac OS X Leopard's login screen.
 
=== A precocious attempt at modern art that is look and feel ===
* New default Mac OS Leopard style theme. It comes with its own wallpaper and icon set. It has been set as the default theme.
* New default wallpaper. Unlike the other wallpapers, the name of the bootleg on the wallpaper is just "Windows Mac OS XP", which is where this bootleg got its name.
* New default sound scheme.
* A new screensaver has been added to the system and made the default, that being a Windows port of the Flurry screensaver from Mac OS X.
* A special post-setup macro routine which runs on startup has been added. The macro automatically creates shortcuts by taking control of the mouse and delicately positioning it in specific ways.
* A fully working Mac OS X Leopard style dock complete with beautiful skeuomorphic icons ripped straight from Mac OS itself has been added thanks to a program called RK Launcher being included, which now runs on startup and is positioned to the bottom, as it should be on Mac OS X.
* Many visual system elements such as window dialogs, menus and even the taskbar has been given a shadow with the exact precision which could only be ever replicated by the truly gifted sons of God, all thanks to a program called ''Y'z Shadow'' being included.
* The autorun has been completely replaced with a brand new one made with AutoPlay Media Studio 6.0.
* OEM branding has been added. The Support Information is also implemented as well.
 
== SoftwareIncluded programs ==
* Alfa Autorun Killer 2.0
* K-Lite Codec Pack 4.7.0
* Mozilla Firefox 3.6.24
* Internet Download Manager 5.18 (modified)
:** Internet Download Manager is one of the most popular download managers, which boosts downloading performance by orders of magnitude and even has a sleek looking UI which looks straight out of the 2000's. It has been modified to come with one extra theme: "Koushik Halder". This is because the cracked copy of IDM came from DamasGate, a popular warez site in the Middle East. It also has been cracked, like WinRAR.
* Winamp 5.2.3.672
* WinRAR 3.90 (modified)
:** WinRAR is a popular archiver program, even more so than 7-Zip, and out-classes even WinAce by a small margin. It has been modified to be cracked and registered to "DamasGate Lover". The cracked copy of WinRAR also came from the same site. It now comes with three themes, all of them being Vista-related: Vista WinRAR 64x, Vista Ultimate 48x48 and WINRAR Vista V7 48*48.
* Yahoo! Messenger 10.0.0.525
* Small.CH.A Removal (titled ''WINDOWS MAC OS VIRUS REMOVEL TOOL.EXE'' on the desktop)

* Flurry
 
 
== Notes ==
=== Heads up ===
* A lot of this article is intentionally overdramatic and over-the-top, and is solely written in such ways as a joke, due to the bootleg's nature as a notable part of Crusty Windows history. Please do not take this article 100% seriously, and try not to use this article as an example on how to write future articles.
 
=== Bootleg quirks and features ===
* The taskbar has been repositioned to the top of the screen, for accuracy to the Macintosh franchise. A special AutoHotkey script was used to do this.
* The Internet Explorer default home page has been changed to "www.arabseed.com".
* The Mozilla Firefox default home page has been changed to "www.google.com".
* UXTheme, the theme engine of Windows XP, has been patched to allow unsigned visual styles to work, allowing the Mac OS theme of this OS to be experienced in all of its glory.
* Windows Mac OS XP shares many similiarities to its parent mod [[Windows Extreme Seven 2009]] internally, such as leftover Extreme Seven branding in its self-extractors and graphical setup text.
 
* Mozilla Firefox starts in Offline Mode by default.
==== De-mystifying the theme follies ====
* Mozilla Firefox comes with one bookmark, which goes to "www.ryanvm.net/forum".
* The Mozilla Firefox self-extractor's comment is "Silent installer Mozilla Firefox 7.0.0.0", yet the actual Mozilla Firefox executable's version is specified as 3.6.24.
* The "Leopard By Hamed" theme does not work due to a broken INI file pointing at non-existent paths. The styles and cursors and icons it attempts to load has "LSP_Files" in the beginning of the path, but since that folder does not exist, the theme will not load. Additionally, the wallpaper and screensaver and sounds also point to a non-existent path, but if you clear "LSP_Files" from the path, they will actually load properly.
* The "MacOs" theme has the same problem as the "Leopard By Hamed" theme. It's supposed to use Win7PDC's assets, which is another theme that does not exist.
* Supposedly, there are 18 "MacOS" themes, but there are only 11 listed. The other 11 themes do not have "MacOS" in them, so they do exist, they're just not part of the "MacOS" themes.
