Remember on Windows XP when there's be arguments over who was faster? Msstyles or WindowBlinds?

In the Windows Vista era, such arguments seem almost quaint as the massive performance advantage of WindowBlinds over Aero is undeniable.

Where it really shows up is in resizing windows.

Try it for yourself. If you have Windows Vista, load up Aero, open up any program (the more complex, the better) and resize it with the default Aero. Then load up the most obnoxious, most complicated WindowBlinds skin and try it. The difference is pretty significant.

Sniff, sniff.  You're making me want WindowBlinds (... but I have to wait until after the holidays before I buy any more goodies.  Silly credit card bills get in the way )
