WindowsBlinds Vista/Aero Question

Battery Life, Compatibility

August 17, 2008 7:05 PM from

Hi,
I am currently looking to get a laptop with Windows Vista along with Stardock's WindowsBlinds.

Does Aero have to be on for WindowBlinds to work?
How does battery life on a laptop with WindowBlinds or Aero compare with one another?

Thanks.

Windowblinds will work without Aero, though all the transparency features may not be supported in some skins.

Well, will the ones that one made for XP - I'm looking through WinCustomize right now - that have transparency still have transparency with Aero off in Vista?

Would WindowBlinds fully function with Windows Vista Standard (not Aero or Basic) visual style?
