    Actually for personalization I would give XP the marks.
    So far most 7 and Vista VS look almost the same as Aero.

    Well, the other new functions kind of balance out though.

    I like the Royale Theme with a Jaguar (animal) as desktop background - lifted from the wall paper in the Brazilian W7 Theme back - from the MS site.

    Here's a W2K3 virtual machine (Host W7 X-64) image using ROYALE NOIR XP theme with a Brazilian Jaguar as desktop pic.

    I wish I could replicate the nice grey black curved bars on W7 rather than the rather bland square one.

    The W7 taskbar is OK but for me isn't really a MUST HAVE feature -- Id' rather have the old XP power toy Virtual desktops back.

    Cheers

    Nice desktop and theme - I used my own photo of my hearing dog, collie-cross (tri-colour) with nice smile... good picture - I usual like collie-type dog breed cos it so soft fur coat and nice cuddle.

    Windows 7

    I used to be a huge fan of XP Pro. When vista came out i tried it and was horrid. Sooo many bugs. Everyone was saying how good vista is but were getting bad performance (Due to the bugs)

    I stayed with Pro for years untill i got a laptop with Windows 7 on it. Instantly i took a shine into it and got my self a copy.

    I now have Windows 7 Pro x64, so it takes advantage of my dual core processor unlike my 32Bit XP Pro did. Runs alot smoother and a hell of a lot faster.

    There was one down side, it took me over 6 hours just to connect the internet to my computer.

    In my opinion, most of the people who have bought W7, were using it as a beta and RC, liked it, and bought it. The casual users will get it when they buy a new computer. A friend of mine, who writes books, uses his computer only for writing and listening to DVDs while he writes and he's happily using Windows98 on a ten-year old computer.
