Is the actual theme the same, except the wallpapers?

[Malisk]

What's up with the love of lowres wallpapers?

Anyway, Bluff looks too cluttered for a wallpaper to me, but the new bliss looks interesting, although a bit silly. :)

From what I've seen it changes the default Bliss theme for MCE 2005.

no, theme is slightly different. now has the original light grey color on dialogs (not dark grey like the Tablet PC version), is called Royale (not Energy Blue) and is listed as Media Center style.

wondering the same thing

[russellc]

anyone perhaps have a screenshot of the changes?

[yodat]

How does it differ in look from the one in Softpedia ? Or is there any difference ?

[f0rbez]

I think since its for MCE they only intended lower resolutions... or maybe it should be the other way around?

[Rappy Veteran]

cheers for this :)
