Yeah. Aero is cool for the first few minutes. If you want XP to feel new, throw a new theme on it. You can grab royale if you like the blue (it's from Windows Media Center Edition). Or you can try the newer Zune theme (it's black with orange highlights). I use a Royale theme modded black myself.

If you want a couple extra features so you can feel new, grab the Alt Tab replacement from Microsoft which shows screengrabs of the apps. Or an open source one like TaskSwitchXP.
