That would suck :p I like a double on my primary monitor and a single on my secondary monitor :)

UltraMon FTW! :D

Yeah i do use that :) It is awesomely useful, especially used in conjunction with HydraVision.

If I wanted my computer to be flashy in a useless and slight homosexual way, I'd get a mac.

CLASSIC!

XP uses up to much space. I hate fat window borders and big buttons. (Yes I know it can be modified)
Besides that I like the look of the Classic better.

XP. if your computer if so freaking slow or your screen has so little resolution that the XP theme is in any way obtrusive, then get a new computer!

i do use the classic start menu, though. i fvcking hate the XP menu.

This question has been asked so many times.

I've actually grown to like the XP theme, but either one works for me....

I've pretty much disabled all the "pretty" features of XP. I don't need flashy, useless, screen/RAM occupying junk.

that attitude is so p111 128mb RAM days, with any decent computer they make NO noticeable performance difference today ;)

How about "It looks like little tikes sh|t on my computer screen"?
