Well, it might be a first crack and you might indeed be a bit rusty after year, but it's absolutely the best Vista based setup i've seen so far! I wonder what it will look like after some oil...

Skin Itunes. There are plugins for it :D And I'm sure you know what I'm talkin about ;) Uhh, I LOVE the bar, not so much the window themes (some people like black bar white window). I am a fan of using the same color on the bar, on the window. But that's just me. Overall... AWESOME. I wish they had a VS for vista already :( Windowblinds is too hefty.

It looks cool. The vs is actually better than vista and the windows transparency is perfect.

Huh this one slipped past me. ummm to be fair nothing much here to get excited about, no VS oh Wall to blag about neither. But seeing this is Vista then I'm glad i haven't upgraded yet.

Looks like a usable desktop. And the transparant FF window is a nice touch.
