Default Dreamscenes

Just saw someone elses thread about backgrounds and didnt want to hijack it, but does anyone know where you can download microsoft dreamscene backgrounds? Ive seen a few sites but they require you to download third party software with not much selection. Didnt know if there were the 'real' ones anywhere that i didnt know about.

I have had no ill-effects from running the default green one. My RAM usage usually sits around 44% (2gigs) which is insane, but its with or without dreamscenes.

On the website linked it says you must have Vista Ultimate, is this true? I have XP right now and am most likely going to get Vista Home Premium.

Dang. Ultimate is $170 for the OEM DVD. I just tried to install on XP and it does tell me the Vista is required, but it didn't say Vista Ultimate.

Made sure that wasn't a pirated version? I doubt it'd be THAT cheap...

Probably the OEM version too...
