How do I get a grown-up XP interface

[Steve Rossiter]

Hi,

I know XP allows for a Classsic interface but there still seems to be a
remnant of XP gooiness that I'd like to get rid of. Personally, I really liked
the look of Windows 2000. Is there an easy way to revert back to a Windows
2000 gui (does TweakXP do this?) or is it a matter of registry changes and
whatnot that still doesn't rid one of the Teletubbiness and in addition
leaves the system less stable.

Thank you, Steve.
