Windows XP OSX Leopard is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by WarezDemon. It released on June 24, 2009 and was added to the archive on December 31, 2023.

Description

This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 version, themed to look like Mac OS X Leopard, with a dock (RocketDock 1.3.5), a modified icon pack, a few programs and a ton of WindowBlinds themes. Some parts like the first stage of the setup and login screen are completely stock. The sounds are also not modified.

Changes from Windows XP SP2

Minor changes

  • The Winver banner is taken from Russian Windows XP.

Changes in pre-desktop procedures

  • The graphical portion of the setup has been completely changed. It no longer displays billboards, or the list of things to do, instead having a static image reading "Installing Leopard Please Wait...".
  • The boot screen has also been changed, now resembling Windows Vista.

Look and feel

  • Entirely new theme based on Mac OS X Leopard
  • 26 new wallpapers have been added.
  • New icon set, based on Windows Vista
  • New programs added

Software

  • Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.6
  • Safari 3.0.3
  • Styler 1.401
  • Windows Live Messenger 8.1

Customization Utilities

  • WindowBlinds

Updates

  • MSXML 6.0 Parser
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1, 2.0, 3.0
  • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2005, 2008

Notes

Bootleg quirks

  • There is supposed to be a modified sysdm.cpl, however it is not copied because it is in the wrong folder ($OEM$\$$\Web, not $OEM$\$$\system32)
  • Many of the files are dated from October 13th to the 15th of 2007, however the file !!!Read Me First!!!.txt on the installation media is dated June 24, 2009. It could be possible this OS was made in October 2007, however that is unlikely.
