    What about vista transformation pack, if you dn't like can you uninstall it and be just like before? Anyone know how long it takes to install?
    That, is an excellent question...
  • Forgive me for being thick but is there any point to skinning apart from the look?

    Not a lot really if anything I think its a bit naff, I mean adding quite large files to system files and changing the registry for the sake of a different look I had all sorts of problems and had to reinstall XP as a fresh install as the pack did not uninstall properly even though the author said it would uninstall with no problems.
  • Hi all, if you go to M$ you can download the zune desktop from there, its alot like vista, abit like royal theme, its orange and brown looks quite good.
