So, is it not obvious to everyone now as to the reason why Micro$haft asked kol to remove his VistaXP theme? Some of these "Vista" desktops really look like Vista...no wonder they don't want you to have fun with it. They want you to shell out MORE money for a bloated OS with a pretty face! :rolleyes:

uh, what?

Go to the previous page....somebody commented about having a clone of Vista...

Oh, alright, gotcha. :p Sorry. My opinion on the whole thing is that Microsoft had every right to have it removed. As someone said on the thread on it, reading a book and then typing all of it out and claiming it's yours doesn't make it right. It was their work in the first place, eh. I'd be ****ed if I designed a new innovative GUI for a new OS and it got ported.

However I already caught someone who distributed VistaXP as their work, reported it to KoL. It's pathetic.

    • I have had a request since 2017 and so have many others that requested too and nothing has been done about it except its on our list to do.
    • I think it might be behind the trailer park amusements?
    • Some people don’t like them but plenty more enjoy what they have to offer. Check the value of the company.
    • Not such a great deal, Ultimate, which gives you full 5080 features is $181.99 CAD per month, that's $2183.88 per year, I can buy the 5080 for $1809.99 CAD, then it goes up to $279.99 per month after the first billing cycle. Typical cloud rental, costs more than buying the hardware.
