I have used Macs and I dont like the "experience" lol yes it is easy to use in fact more so then windows but it also feels like my hands are tied and I cannot do alot of the things I take for granted... I know there must be Mac equivelent short cuts to doing things but I dont know them... LOL I also wonder why they keept the one button mouse for so long.... I know I know you can run out and buy any mouse and it will work with the OS and programs but shouldnt it come with it ? lol I like my windows to look like windows smile.gif in fact I dont even like that Luna thing I like my Windows to look as much like 95/98 as possible LOL im old fashioned !

lol realy ? hmm yeah my systems do feel faster then when I go to say Best Buy and play around with there systems. (I always thought it was becouse they where laptops but the CPU's where just as fast as mine and I wasnt doing 3D anything...)

Yeah, you save about 5-6 MB of RAM, not much but its something
M$ Agent #2
Hmmm yeah but I imagine that 5-6MB's runs alot.

You might as well disable the themes process in services.msc, thats got no point if you use thw win 98 look. except for gobbling up an MB of RAM.

I also like to stick with the windows classic themes but, I enjoyed seeing the theme (even though I’m not a fan of Mac).
