I put a poll up last week to see what the regulars who stop by here think. Here are the results (as of this writing):

nLite Is Back!

By

nliteAfter no updates for almost 5 years nLite is active again.
For those who don’t know nLite is a program that allowed you to easily create custom installation images for XP (and 2000).
The return of the developer is good news. Congrats and Welcome Back!
I know I will be using it to finalize my XP images just before XP support ends.
