Windows Mac OS XP is a bootleg Windows edition created by Fouad Laz released in 2012 and added to the archive on November 15th, 2021. It is one of the earliest bootlegs in the archive and the first bootleg ever archived to Crusty Windows and a huge source of inspiration to start the Crusty Windows project.
The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 English ISO. The bootleg primarily focuses on theming the OS to Mac OS X's Aqua user interface, particularly Leopard's style, and including various (pirated) software programs and themes packaged in a self-extracting archive which is on the CD. It is forked from Windows Extreme Seven 2009, another Windows mod, but it is inferior and has less effort put into it compared to Mac OS XP. It is unattended and preactivated.
As for the tools used behind the scenes, the ISO was made with nLite 1.4.9.1, and 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.
