Can Vista be tweaked?
Although Vista is new, and fast, sometimes it can seem a bit bogged down. Too many programs and not enough resources could be your problem. This could be due to having Vista Aero enabled. Aero is a resource consuming hog.
Vista is a resource hog. Vista Aero in particular eats of a ton of resources. Aero is a group of features with Vista, such as visual effects, including helpful animations, transparent glass menu bars, and live thumbnail previews of open programs.
Aero is setup as the default theme for Vista. Disabling it frees up allot of resources and you should notice a difference in the system after you disable it. You will still have the Vista look, but not the resource hogging effects.
You will not have the 3-D flip option for your desktop if you disable the Aero theme, but you will have the general Vista look still. You either like the 3-D flip option or you dont, its not a necessity to have.
