    No. Both SPEED and STAMINA are running Areo Glass By Default.

    Why??? Aero runs even better in stamina mode than in speed mode. The Nvidia drivers are a plague atm.

    Ha - I thought the same man. nVidia drivers are slow and it won't let me install the latest driver from nvidia.com.

    Because the whole point of stamina mode is to save battery life and aero uses more power.

    Does AERO include the live thumbnail+3D flip thing or just the transparency thing?
