    Why don't you just install Ubuntu and Beryl?

    I think the closest you will get to Beryl effects for XP is
    if you buy and install Vista, but seems expensive when you
    consider Ubuntu+Beryl is completely FREE:)

    The only other thing I can think of is using Stardock's WindowsFX and maybe with combination of DesktopX and Windowblinds. You'll get some fancy stuff but I'm not sure you'd be able to completely replicate Beryl.
