I do. I just installed it today and I love it. My brother has a Vista home basic and I really like the look. So I got a Vista theme for xp! I attached a screenie to show some people who don't know what it looks like.

I want a new computer!

You know, a good idea is to place the cencored stuff at another place then the desktop, where everyone can see it .

The theme looks quite nice, though.

There is no greater virtue, then the ability to face oneself.

That's one of the messiest desktops I've ever seen. "The FPS creator rocks" I mean.

Yes, The Fps Creator Rocks, uTorrent.

You know, the software that's used for downloading TV Shows and some movies and music. NOT pirating.

Don't even start.

Who knows what's behind those censored icons huh?

Just use Hulu. No licensing/ piracy issues, and you can save yourself some much-needed HD space .

Yeah, just click this link... > http://www.askvg.com/download-windows-7-m3-theme-for-windows-vista/ It's got the links, tutorial(s) and other accessories like the wallpaper.

It DOES require some registry tweaking for the "square" start bar icons.

@ Matt Rock:
Yeah, but alot of things aren't on Hulu. Hulu is only allowed to only host 5 full episodes of Family Guy, for instance.

There's the Vista Transformation Pack. It makes XP/2003 look like Vista. Even down to the start menu.

I use Vista Inspirat:

Doesn't seem to slow XP down at all, and does not have the same niggles as other desktop themes.
