There is actually *enhancing* one's desktop with *useful* tools and then there's eye candy that's "neat" but at the end of the day really doesn't add any value.

This fits the latter category.

Interesting novelty but pretty useless at the end of the day (note that I have a 6000+ AM2 w/4Gb so resources are not an issue). Kinda like Vista itself. :)

At least it's free.

THREE stars.

continuously freezes my pc after ~20min
of working. Maybe due to my multi monitor setup.

nice toy, but for the reboots and the huge memory consumption a 3...

Nice! bringing on some enhancement to the XP desktop =) now please do me a favor and do not, I repeat DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS if YOU'RE NOT into enhancing your desktop, otherwise you will sound like a stupid moron when you leave a bad review here like some people below...retards, nobody is making you switch to anything and the option to download this is always yours, but for those who like the visual side of things and be different, GET IT NOW!!!!

Works just like the Vista one, which is a bit impressive actually.

The only problems are that it doesn't correctly display some windows such as Virtual PC (which probably has a special method of drawing to the window... I don't THINK it uses the overlay or hardware acceleration but I could be wrong) and I would except it to have problems with video overlay apps as well. I'm sure there must be SOME trick to capture that? Vista has an edge there since the ENTIRE desktop is hardware accelerated... I think it simplifies some things a bit.

In XP, Win + TAB defaultly does a task switch using the taskbar as the focus. In Vista this is switched to WIN + T. It would be nice to see a hack to also switch the shortcut for XP (register WIN + T as a shortcut and then fire WIN + TAB messages off to Explorer?).

Multi monitor support. Right now it WORKS on a multi-monitor setup, but only the primary monitor is used to display the flip windows (it should be across all monitors iirc... haven't used vista in a bit so if I'm wrong follow vista's example not me) and it fails to hide windows on secondary monitors.

Oh... and the readme files (the EN one at least) uses UNIX line endings instead of Windows line endings... it's unreadable in Notepad.
