Does anyone know how to find a website that sort of emulated mac os x?

I don't mean that it was a real emulation-- It was more of a display model of what OS X looked like and how it operated a little. I believe it was flash-based, and just hosted on the designer's website. My wife and I are ordering our first macs this week, and she's worried about the interface. I'd like to give her an idea what it'll be like.

Sorry I don't have more information.

If possible/applicable, it would be really great for you to touch and use an actual Mac before deciding which to order. Especially if you're deciding between a MacBook and a MacBook Pro. There are personal-taste things that people like and dislike about each...

It's purely html based, but modemhelp.net has a sort of navigate-around-the-os vibe happening. We use it a lot in technical support.

Sorry, this link will take you more directly to the OSX page.

Thanks guys. iFizzle was the one I was thinking of, but I remember it being a little better.
