    So you have to get Home Premium just to actually DO anything?

    My thoughts exactly.

    I'm using Vista RC2 which is equal to the Ultimate Edition, I can't imagine using it with so many options taken out.

    Well, Home Premium doesn't lose that many features from Ultimate. I mean...a lot of Ultimate's features you might not even notice being missing...like the hard drive encryption.

    What - a taskbar similar to vista in a xp theme? You can use many Vista looking themes, but my preference are microsoft signed - royale noir and zune. I started a thread with the links for download.
