Just curious, but have you tried any of the Windows 8 launchers? There are actually a couple of them that look and act a lot like Windows.

There are but they arent close enough to the actual windows 8

How do I get this to work on my phone? Just put it on my SD card and flash it, or unzip through a file manager? I'm talking about the windows 7 UI.

It's a .apk, so you'll need to put it on your sdcard then use a filemanager to run it to install or push it to system/app ... OR you could use adb and install it that way.

Android Windows 7 launcher

Hi everybody, here is a realy interesting launcher look like Windows 7, its looking realy good with this Computer, settings, etc. icons
The only criticism is that you have just one screen to put your shortcuts, and you can not put widgest on your screns :/ just the clock and calendar and monitor for sms&call's! (there is a .rar file with walpapers just copy them on your SD card in the windows 7 folder)
Enjoy it
If you like it thanks me

I use it to show off to my friends
Looks like someone spent a lot of time on this. How about an Arch with gnome 3 interface? or maybe XFCE for the more hard core user
It's really very dazzle, whether there are language setting, my English is not very good, want to set to Chinese.
I'll give it a try, tks
It's cool. needs some getting used to.
Kind of makes my phone lagg. I think I'd love this on an X10. X8's screen is just too small for me to appreciate this.
But it is interesting.
wow !It looks really wondrful!

[APP][Team.Fluxion]XP Mod Launcher (beta) [WinXP Launcher for Android]

HELLO GUYS !!!

Have you ever wanted to get a PC quality experience on your Android powered device, then look no further! Windows XP is now on Android, well sort of. Thanks to the people in team.fluxion, who is no stranger to the development scene and has been pumping out applications since the good old windows mobile PPC days (Windows Mobile 5/6.x for the youngins reading this), as well as Windows desktop applications, we can now get a taste of Windows XP on our device, and for FREE . To save time, I will just use the description from their official Google Play page:
A legendary application for Windows Mobile Pocket PCs is back for Android as a launcher that imitates the look and feel of Microsoft Windows XP right on your Android device. It lets you explore your file system and open different file formats using default programs as assigned in your device. It also provides the common file system operations like copy, cut, paste and delete.
Download it here (Play Store Link) XP Mod Launcher

P.S : It Works on CM7.2-RC3(as tested by me)
But It's Not in Optimized size......
Mod: Please Delete this thread as it is not fully compatible in size
not compatible with cm7.2 alpha8.2 rc3???
Not compatible with froyo too

One of the reasons why people buy Android platforms is because they <i>don't</i> want an Apple product ;p

I imagine you could use Nova Launcher to somewhat mimic Win7 using the taskbar. Maybe try finding a Win8 hub style guide online.
