For me at least, I can't stand the windows classic appearance, I really don't want 1995 styling in 2007. XP is an awesome OS, however, microsoft really made it rock solid when SP2 came around. |

Whenever I wanted to find out more about the computer or when I was going to try and fix a problem, I always want to see what hardware and drivers I am working with so I would run dxdiag. |
