DesktopX Editor's Review

DesktopX is the cure for your desktop. It can change your desktop in such a way that you won't recognize it anymore. The main window will guide you to change your desktop, use different widgets, or create your own one. The design of the default desktops are very similar to Aero product from Microsoft.

Based on a graphic that supports shadows and transparency the desktop will provide also some additional informations such as weather, clock, shortcuts to main applications, calendar, computer status, etc.

If you don't like the default desktops, you can download others, or create your own ones. You can select objects that can be customized to do almost everything and can be bound together to create a desktop. For creating more futuristic desktops you can use the program studios.

The power of this product consists in its richness in objects and widgets.

Pluses: lot of objects; default desktops; widgets; the creation studio

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: The tool that changes the face of Windows XP.
