Yes, pointless

First two things I did after installing vista:

Closed sidebar and made sure it never started up again
Disabled UAC

'cept for the CPU usage, I <3 the sidebar.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

I never fully got why it became so overly popular, but a while back Microsoft released a Zune type theme fore XP, so it was orange and black based, and some hoebag went out and (attempted to?) sold the link to the 100% free file on eBay,

BF2s caught whiff of it, and thar it went.
