Yeah, download Enlightenment, KDE, Gnome, etc. Change to tsh, ksh, zsh, bash, or any other number of shells.
Oh wait. Nevermind! Wincustomize.com as posted above it a good place to start. You might look at stardock.com for a lot of nifty stuff if you're into that.

Blackbox for Windows (http://www.bb4win.org/) is pretty nifty. Much lighter on resources than explorer.

Try desktop X. Desktop X is probably the most popular alternative shell, but I don't like it. Personally I'm a fan of bblean. It's a more minimalistic blackbox shell, works great IMO. The download is less then 2MB and it only uses like 8 MB of RAM.
