  1. Heeeeeeeey this new channel seems interesting, I signed up, I hope you like it :)))))) I will definitely try it on a vm, can it also be done on other Longhorn builds like the 4093 for example?

  2. i need help with making a custom windows xp version and change the version string, winver, boot screen, all logos and more of the looks can you maybe help? also W vid

  3. This is by far I think the only actually understandable tutorial for how to make Longhorn's Aero to work on VMware, since it's quite straightforward and you go into detail for everything that is needed to be done! Awesome video as always (also I've always kinda found it weird how they changed the minimize and maximize buttons in Longhorn's Aero theme to up and down buttons, kinda like Windows 2 or 3.X actually)!
