I started using litestep because the themes looked alot better than
your standard windows themes :)

(i continued using it when i discovered it was so easy to create your
own themes, I created one that I liked using and now the windows UI
seems foreign, specifically my main gripe with the windows UI is not
being able to customize the desktop context menu)

ps. win7 works fine with LS for me, but I did have to use an up to
date version (install via stable release then copy over files from
latest version).
