Windows XP

CLASSIC

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 😉

well, each to their own i guess. But the performance argument is dead and gone today...
 
XP only because two taskbar rows allows for time/date/day in the clock without third part programs.

Otherwise Classic.
 
I use the XP theme Corona Violet. I use the standard Start menu though.

BTW, when running a full screen application, the theme you use makes no difference on memory usage and processing power, I don't think. The only real heavy things I do while not using a full screen application is encoding, and I'm still plenty fast for that (X2 4800+) even with the XP themes..
 
Can you really not get a double taskbar with classic?

That would suck 😛 I like a double on my primary monitor and a single on my secondary monitor 🙂

UltraMon FTW! 😀
 
XP with OSX theme because I get bored and fiddle around with themes. I've actually been using this OSX theme comfortably for over half a year now, though, so it shows that it's not just a novelty, and can be used practically.
