Windows XP Prehistórico 2015 is a Windows XP SP3 based distribution created as part of the XP Prehistórico series, by Lander X. It released at some point in January 2014.
Unfortunately, the other editions of this bootleg are paid and currently considered lost, because Lander X discontinues and deletes old versions of his bootlegs from his servers after some period of time.
Description
The OS is a slightly altered Windows XP SP3 ISO, but remains mostly stock. It comes with the Zune and Royale themes added along with branding. It also comes with its own autorun.
Through the autorun, you can't really access much, although there is a bit of information about the author and some acknowledgements.
