It's XP with the Vista sidebar. Just found out that you can run the real thing under XP.

Black Mesa is an awesome theme. I ran it on XP for the longest time before I switched to Vista.

^^ Guess where I know the theme from? Been running it ever since. images/smilies/love.gif

Regarding Vista. There are two factors that keep me away from it.
First being the constant nagging "Do you really want to press start?".

Secondly the uterly retarded way the file explorer works. In XP you srolled down and that was it.
In Vista is scrolls to the left and right while doing so. It's all over the place and it makes it hard to click folders since they constantly change position. Whoever came up with that deserves to be shot.

I can't live with neither?

That's just list view (like icons, details, etc.). XP had it too.

Views -> Details -> set as you like
Organize -> Folder and Search Options -> View -> Apply to Folders

That will set the defaults.

Still prefer the royale noir. Totally different look, but still very basic...

I fucking love this car. When it comes to the U.S. I will be getting it someday in this color with the red stripping.

It's my understanding that the 159 will be getting a slight redesign when it comes to the US. Hopefully they won't screw it up.
