sup, bitch?
the source to Windows XP has leaked out on the internets. finally the best version of Windows is free as in speech. now we can use the power of open source to make it even better. is this the year of Windows on the desktop?

seeing how the windows 2000 source code was already leaked years back i figure all you'll get out of this is figuring out how to theme widgets badly.

once you switch xp to the win2k theme it becomes the best windows.

it's not actually a leak, it was released intentionally by microsoft in the hopes that someone out there would eventually help them understand and maintain the ntfs code

why has milkdrop not been surpassed or even met in the decade since


the dude made another one that played on the desktop and it morphed and twisted textures. it was soooo good, the effect it created was so excellent.

Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of Stallman's nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Microshaft.

I checked out Winamp a while ago and there was literally only one lovely llama song on there. maybe there's a paid version with more but I wouldn't bother honestly, Spotify has a lot more music and a free version.
