Michael Baberick custom-made this look for his system running Windows 7, and it's a perfect example of using the right tools to add huge amounts of information to a desktop, along with quick access to important folders, while still keeping plenty of room available as a workspace.
If you're looking to reproduce something similar to Michael's desktop, here's what you'll need:
- The Shine 2.0 theme for Windows 7
- Rainmeter
- Omnimo 3.1 for Rainmeter
- iTunes Player 2 for Rainmeter
- ToxxWeather for Rainmeter
If you're interested in the desktop wallpaper itself, Michael says that it's an original and that he's planning on posting it soon.

Is there any similar sort of way to do that with Mac OSX?
Run Windows 7 as a virtual machine.
also, W7 is a better OS anyway
Wow, helpful Chris.
*very, very slow clap*
Ignoring the stupid fanboy comment posted above, GeekTool (http://projects.tynsoe.org/en/geektool/) does a similair job in OS X.
There are also plenty of tutorials already written to help get you started.
I wish there was something more rainmeter-ish than geektool... I can never quite get my head around it. Used to love rainmeter when I was on Win
