== Description ==
The bootleg is a modified Windows 2000 SP4 ISO which themes the OS after the origin OS's beta, Windows Neptune, along with some portions of Windows ME, and does it rather well.
 
* Many programs and features from Neptune and Windows ME added, such as the Activity Centers (although in a partially working state as the Game Center crashes), Windows ME's Movie Maker (primitive compared to XP's Movie Maker which had effects and a better looking UI) and Neptune's login screen to boot.
