Description
The bootleg is a modified Windows 7 RTM ISO. It comes with a new theme along with 2 other ones, along with the SCSI Pass Through Direct driver on the CD. That's pretty much it. The description claims it comes with "over 200 softwares", and claims it doesn't remove anything from Windows 7, but none of the former can be seen in this mod.
