DesktopX - Description
DesktopX is part of Object Desktop that can change the look and feel of the Windows graphical user interface.
DesktopX allows users to build their own desktops. It does this by giving Windows the capability of having true desktop objects that can be of any size, shape, and function.
When run, DesktopX has an optional system tray icon that lets users enable/disable the features of DesktopX.
It can load themes (entire desktops) or individual objects. And as long as DesktopX is installed, users can
download and run widgets without DesktopX even running (widgets just use DesktopX DLLs for their run-time).

DesktopX - Highlights
DesktopX focuses on providing 3 main benefits:
1) Building custom desktops. Users can use DesktopX to build custom desktops which can then be saved and distributed.
2) Adding functionality to the desktop in the form of objects (see screenshots) or widgets (which are objects that are exported as .EXE’s that can be run without DesktopX running).
3) Enhancing the Windows desktop icons.

DesktopX - review
from PCworld review: "If you march to a different drummer and you want to individualize
your Windows desktop, this program is worth considering. With it you can apply themes to your desktop.
You can use this program to create desktops too. For instance, if you're a lurking Mac OS zealot, a Linuxhead, or an OS/2 fan,
this program can help you make your Windows desktop look like those operating systems' desktops. (Note that such changes
are cosmetic only.)..."
