There are 9 different "mini bootlegs" bundled, along with 9 more which are packedcome with extra programs. You can choosepick towhich install"mini bootleg" you want through the regularboot bootlegselector, along with the extra programs if you wish. You can also just install the regular bootleg, if you so desire.
 
The "mini bootlegs" all serve various purposes, such as "Arabic Screen" being an Arabic version of English Windows XP (which is done by automatically applying the Arabic language on startup), and "Crystal" being Windows XP, with the CrystalXP.net theme applied onto it. Most of them have many consistencies between them, such as always changing the text-mode setup OS text, and changing the full name and organization.
