This program sounds cool with all the themes and the microphone tool, if you like this program i reccomend windowblinds (www.stardock.com) and Style XP (www.tgtsoft.com).
 a waste of money from Micro$oft February 1, 2004

this is the biggest gimmick from micro$oft, you buy or "buy" their overly expensive opperating system that you are basically forced to buy. And they don't include stuff, so you'll have to buy or "buy" later. The only thing i wanted this for was the ability to change my startbar colors and the themes, because silver and blue just dont cut it. I "bought" this off the interweb to see the different themes, and the stupid product overwrote some of my newer files; eg. windows media player, i wasn't sure if my version i had was older or newer than the one in plus!, and it made windows media player the default veiwer for a bunch of stuff like .mpg's and .mp3's was first lame thing that happend. the other themes were all lame, I had better looking themes when i used window blinds and StarDock skincaster. After using this product i think i'm going to buy Stardock since the choices in skins is far better. The only reason i gave this 2 stars was because of the pretty cool voice recognition thingy.
 $30 for "shareware" software?!?! December 27, 2003

I paid $29.99 for this thinking that, while extremely overpriced, at least I would be getting the Aquarium screensaver and the Hyperbowl game. Lo and behold, both are merely "shareware" versions or "teasers"!!!
You get only 2 lanes to bowl in Hyperbowl, and worse, only lets you play single player UNLESS you care to pay an extra $15.95 for the full version. WTF?!?!!?
Then there's the Aquarium that has 3 fish. If you want the "full" version with more fish, etc., that's another $19.95.
Needless to say I returned the item. I refuse to pay $30 for a collection of shareware.

Total waste of money. Doesn't do a thing. Speaker custumization is lame. Didn't bother to look at the games. The screensaver that looks like an aquarium was not so bad but after awhile a glitch can be seen in it so that too wont pass as a consolation.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP is only okay, as a program. It does have a few good features, but lacks to its previous counterparts! Microsoft needs to add more to Plus! (as in the days of Windows 98) or scrap the entire idea together and throw the few good things it has into the original copy of their next Windows. This version feels like more of a promo than ever. The seven desktops, eight screensavers, few themes combining icons with the two previous mentioned ites, and the three games do make it an acceptable program though. I give it 2-3 stars, but since I am able to compare with a previous version, I'll go with two stars.
