Windows Vista Xtreme Edition (also known as Windows Vista Xtreme Edition 2008) is a currently lost Windows XP SP3 bootleg, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on June 3, 2008.

It is his first real bootleg, which superceded the one that came before, Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy, which was originally made as a test. The successor to this bootleg is Windows Vista Black Edition.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. Like Benjamin's previous bootleg, it is themed after Windows Vista, and is done very well at that. However, the accuracy takes a step back a bit, as you can see the Tahoma font instead of Segoe UI.

It has much of the same features and programs as its predecessor, even including the very same Aero Glass theme (which is just WindowBlinds, if you recall). The theme selection is more focused towards Aero-lookalikes this time around. It comes with Microsoft Office 2007, where as before it was Office 2003. DirectX 10 is integrated, along with a new logon screensaver and many "DreamScene" wallpapers. A heavy metal song is included, too.

It comes with its own autorun, with 3 software packs, the most software packs ever seen in a Benjamin bootleg to date.

There would be more useful information, but at that point it would all just be guesstimates. There's only so much information to work with, you know.
