True. Vista is slow. XP is fast.
By putting more resource intensive items into XP from Vista, you will get XP slower. Also, Vista and XP's architecture are different.

False.
Even if you put this customization to make xp look like vista it would still be faster than vista coz vista requires double the requirement of xp to make it run smoothly. Furthermore, if you just used the msstyles then it would require no additional ram. but if you use windowblinds it might require more ram making your xp slower than before but still it would be faster than vista.

Vista Transformation Pack 6 works well. Only problem is the minimize button doesn't work well on 1920x1200.

I did try the program, which is free but found it cumbersome. It does look like Vista with the interface and all but I also noticed that my laptop is slower like Vista. I think the GUI is hogging the resources...like Vista. Back to XP for now.
