      very slick!!!!

      wonder if you could upload the nLite file easily?!?

      I think, even tho I said I m happy with Vista, now that I'm getting all my apps on Vista Im getting maxed out with my 2GBs of RAM, damn is Vista a resource whore

      Think I need a stripped down Version of XP, with Zonealarm Pro, AVG AV, and Sandboxie, for gaming and just use Vista for productive tasks

          it's still over 300MB even after gutting the driver cab folder and removing a lot of other crap

          you can basically do the same thing by optimizing xp and shutting down a lot of services

          just have a lot bigger xp install is all

          I was real real bored and wanted to see if it would work

          beats betatesting vista or nero 8
