object desktop vs rainmeter??

As the title states, for tricking out your Windows environment, which software do you recommend and why?

Looking @ Object Desktop, but rain-meter is also free!! However I think the overall end product from object desktop is much better...

exactly, it's more just to give my computer a new look, aero is ok but with simple color change it's pretty basic as far as customization goes, rain meter seems to me like a glorified sidebar gadgets. I'm looking to change cursors, icons add maybe a dock, I already uses fences as it is superb for arranging desktops and icons, and would be nice to theme the windows.
