Hi VG. You have an absolutely great site with some amazing content. THANK YOU! I wish I would have found it a few years ago. Anyways, I have three questions.
1. Do you know of anyone working on a lite version for Windows 7?
2. Is there a way to add the tweaks that you have on your site, to the install dvd/usb drive, so the tweaks are there when the OS is installed?
3. Have you tried any unattended installs with Windows 7? If so, could you post a tutorial?
Again, thank you very much for the great info.
PS. I posted this comment on another older thread. Sorry for the inconvenience. I think it is more pertinant here.
