Because Vista is not XP. If you want to look at XP I suggest you use a
computer that has XP installed on it.

Have a nice day.

Well my point is that:


In xp you are provided with the classical menu.

What is classical?

When vista comes, xp becomes also classical.

It is strange not to provide the xp skin for vista

That is a concession to those still wishing they could run Windows95
and that anything newer has to be wrong, or they just can't handle
the changes. Stick with the default Vista settings.
