    I dont use style xp, I dont like the extra software. I modded the uxtheme.DLL file so that you can change the theme just by going to display properties

    It is NOT reversible!!!! I downloaded one similar to this, complete with self-installing .exe, and when I tried to go back to regular Windows XP UI (because there were some bugs and problems with the Vista UI), it ENTIRELY SCREWED UP MY COMPUTER!!! Some of the system files that were utilized by the Vista UI became corrupted, my drivers for numerous hardwares were corrupted as well, and my computer kept crashing and not booting up properly!

    So, I highly suggest not to download it..... unless you're positive it works! Better yet, just wait for the actual release of Vista!

    yeh but then if you install vista beta you get reduced compatibility with stuff. This just changes the UI, so underneath its all xp.

    Yeh i cant believe the specs u need to run vista and you dont get some of the kool features in the basic version, which defeats the point of vista.
