Stardock is iffy with me. For one, they want you to pay and I'm a man who likes open source and free stuff! I've installed a few of the trial based stardock aps on XP and did no good to my system. Caused problems. Boot problems, lockups, eh.
Speaking of boot, what's up with that hell-awful vista boot screen anyway? I know you can change it to a no-gui boot and looks a bit better, but ew. That's terrible looking. I keep waiting for microsoft to release a patch to update the cruddy thing, but notta so far.
