Vista - Re: Console Windows and Aero Theme-ing

Keith...

mose people that use the CMD that much hate any kind of eye candy.

My experience is that the windows classic is too bloated for them...

I myself most of the time use a theme (msstyle) that is called "os classic
minimal"
that is minimalized even more that windows classic style, for example the
start button is only a small square that takes up very little space on the
taskbar.

For now though after all this vista craze I have vistaXP, the msstyle MS
pulled from the internet because it made XP look too much like vista! lol

After that 10 similar themes poped up around... lol some things you just
cannot stop.
