I tried this out on my work laptop (after a creating a restore point) just to see what would happen. I have to admit that its not a bad deal. Most of the Vista features without the issues I've experience on my gaming rig. I've had quite a few people look at my computer and they really can't tell the difference. Only the start button gives it away and apparently there is a way to even fix this. Kudos to the creator for a job well done.

If you look at the developer's web site there is a pretty good forum that has answers to almost anything. But I think that the only way to revert to the normal XP GUI is to remove the VTP. I could be wrong though.

It will show a thumbnail of the window when you hover your mouse over the tast (in task bar) and provided you have the tooltips application installed (included in the pack). It is just basic but, if you really want the real thing than Vista is available.
