Bon Voyage, Luna and Royale

Default XP Luna Style

I don’t get it.  I really don’t get why they did it.  Vista does not have the XP Luna or Royale UI styles.  You know, this would be a perfect addition for Microsoft to make to Vista in a new Service Pack or something.  This would possibly lower the system requirements to run Vista without having to go back to the crappy classic look.  Also, the non-aero Vista style is ugly and you don’t have any color options.  In addtion to adding the Luna and Royale UI styles to Vista, they should have to color customizable like the classic and Aero Glass Styles.  This type of customization should be a requirement for all UIs.  In anycase, Microsoft should provide an alternate visual type that takes up less resources and still looks good.

In the meantime, you can get third party Luna Themes for Vista.  Links on the Wikipedia article, click the image to get there.
