My friend made this custom release focusing on an improved original version of Vista... Follow him closely... This is an original Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 (not slipstream) and He thought to make it better than the original... He took off some useless stuff and integrate only the important updates, modified themes and other visual stuff, add new sounds and cursors and finish off some cool light and usefull basic apps to default..
