yes you could skin windows 7 to look like this but you cant change your explorer to look like the example with just applying a skin- the whole theme looks quite familiar to me...if i compare it to a recently released beta especially the stripes on the sides ( red ) I dont know who made it first but just compare it to SDC even the font looks the same
