nope, just xp with a custom mstheme

battery life is pretty good, i haven't had the chance to break it in yet, but from what i can tell..expect ~7 hours of battery life with power saver on and screen at 30% brightness (pretty bright), wifi on, and surfing the nets

I will have to check this out

Thanks!
