Description

Like many other Windows bootlegs, this one is designed to look like Windows 7 with Aero elements which comes with most of the common customization utilities to give the system a Windows 7 look. The creators of the bootleg do not seem to be very proficient in English as it is riddled with many spelling errors, the box art being no exception. It is unattended and preactivated.

Changes from Windows XP

  • The text mode setup's OS text has been changed to be the name of the OS, obviously
  • The setup graphics now has a completely new look, with 9 new billboards with "well-written" descriptions of what the OS is and what it has and Windows 7-like graphics. It also introduces the now infamous tagline, which is simply titled "The Next Generation Of Technologey"
  • The OOBE video has been changed to be reminiscent of the animated Windows 7 startup video
  • The OOBE now also has a new Windows 7 style look. Nothing much is different from stock OOBE
  • New boot screen
  • The log in screen now has a Longhorn look, which lacks any text
  • Many new themes, wallpapers, icons, cursors and sound schemes added
