Are there more Aero Effects for Vista?

Hello there Vista Forums

In the past i have used and tried several beta's of Longhorn, and in these build i have seen a lot of different DWM effects on minimizing and maximizing, or opening and closing a window. I can't explain how the effects on those longhorn build look like, but i know that they were very cool

Is it possible to enable more DWM effects, somewhat similair like the program used on ubuntu? (is the name Beryl??) or through a registry hack maybe?

I hope that anyone here knows what i'm talking about my English is not that good.

ThanX

Or try a google search...
Hi, yes i meant Compiz Fusion! And I tried DesktopX once not so long ago, and it's not my kind of program
I searched google so many times and i did not find the answer, maybe i am not searching with the right words

But i think Vista is capable to enable more effects, or not?
There must be a possibility that MS has build it in or am i wrong?

I did some research and I didn't find a way to enable additional effects (without a third-party software)
