    Hi, everyone, I was wondering if we could get a vlite user guide started to come up with the slimmest but most compatible version of vista. If you have any hints or ideas we can add it here. If this isn't a good idea then mod's please feel free to remove it but I think it could be good.
    I can start by posting obviously the official vlite homepage and a few documents and such that I have found.

    The Vlite homepage
    http://www.vlite.net/index.html

    This I found on the ocforums:
    http://www.ocforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=55580&d=1171821099
    it lists many services and gives viewpoints (based on a home or home office position) on why to keep or remove all of them

    this is from the microsoft software forum network:
    http://www.msfn.org/board/Tutorial-Build-Windows-Vista-SP1-x86-DVD-using-vLite-t114957.html
    this shows how to slipstream sp1 for easier installation for various reasons.

    feel free to comment on the idea or give insights on the best configuration for vista!
