This is excellent, with the very minor detail of the fonts, which look a little off, and perhaps a little too anti-aliased? This seems to be the main issue with all web-based retro simulations of Windows 9x and XP. I'm guessing this is because the default font (Tahoma?) isn't freely licensed? Everything else is spot on, though!

Browser text rasterization isn't configurable enough to make text look like XP, even if you have the right font.
