I used to always tinker around with windows, slowly but surely molding it to my exact preferences. most of the tweaks i did were performance tweaks, though i did dable in some themes (like windowsblinds, uxthemepatcher and unsigned themes). now, though, my computer is as tweaked as its gonna get, as far as i know. there isnt a single thing i can think to do other than start replacing icons etc. i even tried switching to linux. it almost worked, but my sound card didnt work, plus when i went to college this year it was nearly impossible to work with the computer as a work in progress (graphics driver problems mostly).
so what im wondering is this. how will litestep affect my system performance? will it make it any faster? slower? im perfectly fine following guides and learning how it works, but im hesitant to try a shell that wont actually help the computer in any way other than make it look pretty.
if it will only hurt my system performance, is there any sort of OS project sort of thing you could recommend for me to do? i really want to have some sort of computer to tinker with again.
thanks for your help
