Linux Live CD - Vista theme

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a linux live cd that does not need to be installed on a hard drive and can boot/run from cd.

I was looking for a distro that has a Windows Vista theme, and if that is not available, then a Windows XP theme.

Thank you

Jason

If you need a Windows live CD, check out BartPE. Otherwise, I don't know of any live CD with that sort of theme - you could try to remaster a live CD with a Windows theme.

[edit] How rude of me, welcome to LQ
