Videos as desktop backgrounds? Kinda distracting, don't you think?

Knew the rest of this already. I've been keeping tabs on Vista's development and Beta tested RC2. But I don't see myself upgrading to Vista for the next few years. At least not until they come out with 16-core processors.

You can already do this if you have VLC media player running.

Currently posting this from Opera on Vista (no aero though since it's over remote desktop) and I must say that I'm too fond of it. The new gui is well, too much of everything tbh.
The new start menu sucks completely. I mean a search field for start menu? It takes way too long to find anything in it.
Not to mention it takes 560MB of ram when no apps are running.

560MB , thats an even bigger rip off, than Norton AntiViruses Ram hogging

560mb of ram doesn't seem too bad, just upgraded to 4gb. Anyways, who would want a video background, sure it would be cool for a few days but then it would get annoying fast.
