Hey Hongkiat!
Thanks a lot for linking to my article!

@Jusdy: Vista Transformation Pack is good,only thing is that it messes with important DLL files sometimes! So better try these themes :D

I remember how I tried making my windows to look like Apple, now that I’m on Apple, maybe I’ll make the WinXP inside my Mac’s Parallels to look like Vista :-P

XP trying to be vista will just decrease performance for style…

similary, vista is also doing the same….just used vista for a few days now…and it is slow…
