How can you set Windows XP to use the "Command Prompt" style

Example: http://home.comcast.net/~luigiman89/command.jpg

as opposed to the Windows Classic style in the Display control panel.

Example: http://home.comcast.net/~luigiman89/display.jpg

I've seen it used before, but I've never figured out how to actually set
Windows to use it.

Your query makes no sense. Appears you're comparing apples to oranges.

There's no such thing as the "Command Prompt" style. Your picture sinmply
shows a command prompt window open on the desktop. To open such a window, go
to Start | Run, and type CMD.

to customize your command prompt window...
just right click on the shortcut and under "properties"
you will have lots of custom options
