Anywhere on web to have ago on a 'virtual osx desktop'

As title, pondering about getting a mac and want a play with the interface, anyone written a flash OSX desktop or anything along those lines, so I can see if I like it ?

I don't think there's such a thing.

What some people have done is to buy a old G4/G5 and play with it to see what OS X is like.

Only other thing is the Apple Store, that's what all the Macs are on display for, but it depends if you can get to a store.

Apple Store, Purple Shirt place, John Lewis and others will be happy to help.

First of all thats a great username. Secondly, as off the wall your question may be, I've seen exactly what you've described somewhere on the net. Trouble is I cant remember where.

If I find it I'll post back.

Yea but it isn't actual Apple OS X... don't justify the actual interface - but nonetheless, a good play abouts - esp to install over your Windows...

Its funny I was pondering the same thing the other day.

I ended up going to a large PC outlet where they have some on display. Just tell the guy your looking to get a mac in the near future and he'll let you have a blast.
