Can't say I agree with your assessment of the finder, but if you really want to get rid of it, give pathfinder a try:

Lots of folks like it, it's much more customizable, and is much faster than Jagwire's finder.
I have a really tough time taking this guy seriously. Way too much commentary, some of it completely unrelated to software - "we did blackout the home page as a war protest in March." Now, I wasn't exactly in favor of the war, but this guy seems really, really self righteous. I know I went to his homepage to find out how HE felt about the war... I don't know, but he seems more interested in hearing his own voice (seeing his own print?) than in producing software.

And people say Linux users are nerds???
You could also pick up a copy of themechanger, which is a bit simpler and is open source! Then go to resexcellence for all of your theme needs.
w .resexcellence.com/themes/
I don't mind the look of aqua, but I do get pretty tired of it after a while. Can't wait till themes get updated for 10.3!
