It looks like a Windows derivative called lavenderish.

Does windows explorer crash as frequently on that system as it used to do on Windows 95/98? I remember replacing explorer exe with that of Windows ME which made things a bit more stable in that regard.

No rock solid...NO integrated Internet Explorer so no instability...plus you have a NT core .... Nice simple , fast and internet tricks free file browser bunny....unfortunately cannot be used on later windows.
If you want explorer stability on 98 use 98 lite to revert to the 95 file browser though IE removal itself does help a lot...ie no more seizing up with bookmarks/history files. . and of course vastly improved security.

Ntlite is for these....
Supports client Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10TP(9926), 32 and 64-bit natively.
just to avoid confusion.
At 80MB full install I don't thinks there's much that can be removed
for xp/2000 theres xplite, vorck fileset and nlite.

Some custom made icons in the wbar.
Able to run conky without borders and make it seem tranparant due to the uniform backround color.
Conky font is Eurostile Extended and Eurostile Bold extended. Better known as the Casio font.
JWM style based on the Darkilouche GTK theme.

Mike, do you have an already-made lite version of Windows 7/8? If so make it available for download and ask Ally to mirror it as a derivative of Puppy.

I think it looks nice, myself -- but, then, I'm a fool for the Microgramma fonts and their derivatives

They go very well with these times of rectangles and squares with bevelled edges. It almost seems they're designed to complement that.
I'm sure they would go very well next to the Faenza icon family.
Unfortunately, they quickly become unreadable at smaller sizes.
But for making stylish bold space age statements, excellent fonts.

Mike, do you have an already-made lite version of Windows 7/8? If so make it available for download and ask Ally to mirror it as a derivative of Puppy. Very Happy
well at around 4GB I estimate about 12 hours to upload if the connection behaves... so might not rush into that.
Thats assuming I can zip up hard links....
Its sat in a corner waiting for a reason to co exist for now...

By the way the original install of 7 professional was over 12GB.
