What you have said here is true I use a shell called LiteStep which is an
Xwindows look-a-like for Win95/NT it's pretty cool it uses *.bmp's like
skins similar to WinAmp.  Take a look at it here
http://litestep.computerheaven.net/present.html
 for LiteStep. I think that this is a dead project but maybe we can do
something similar with EU.

Thanks,
JKinsey
