If I wanted to put that much work into it, I'd go with Linux. Windows is already so bloated, who would want to add another layer on top?

Stardock's Desktop X and Window Blinds offer a whole lot more. Here's over a 1,000 complete UI's for Desktop X, 3,000 themes for Window Blinds, etc:

Course if you're against ever paying for anything, and want everything for free, beggars can't be as choosy.

I like the idea, but I've got a couple of questions:
First, is there any way to transfer the look and feel of Linux (say, KDE, GNOME, XFCE) to WinXP?
Second, any idea if there's a port of Konqueror for XP? I know there's Cygwin, but I'm not gung-ho about using it if I don't have to.

Personally I prefer KDE over gnome. But for easy navigation and a better look and feel, I would choose Windows explorer over either one.
