Thanks! Yeah it reminds me of this video I saw of some guy running super arcane Windows 3.1-era stuff on W8/10 or something with little modification. Btw, if you have rootless disabled, I have made that OS X 10.11 theme available for download. Simply move that GraphiteAppearance.car file to the alias marked '~ Car Resources' in the Aliases folder. Make sure to backup your original, if you do.

I'm not sure about 32-bit Windows 8+, but I remember the 32-bit version of Windows Vista still had the NTVDM, which is all you need for Win3.1-era apps to "just work" out-of-the-box.

With a little modification, you can run apps from Windows 1.01 and 2.03 on XP, probably Vista, and maybe even newer: http://toastytech.com/guis/misc.html

Also, I admittedly have no experience with OS X, but I was recently given an old G5 to play with that I hope to get up and running at some point. This theme file looks quite fun to play with - will it work on PowerPC?
