Vista without Aero reminds me of Linux.

Am i the only one that feels Vista is now more like Linux GUI without aeroglass?

I've just installed Vista 64 for the first time and turned off Aero and something about it both in looks and feel reminds me of Debin linux like Xandros and Linespire.

Xandros and Linespire are two distros that pride themselves on being easy for Windows users to get into, so yes they would be similar.

I'm starting to prefer Vista to XP as it's running smooth here even on only 1Gb
of ram.
