Its a customized Windows Vista CD where most of the components are removed using software such as vLite
And then Size is Reduced so as to fit on a CD

i hav seen some CD's which can write upto 800MB with Overburning may be its like that

Ya..But CD cant Overburn to size of the contents of a DVD

[phreak0ut]

It might even be Windows XP with 'SP3'(Yeah, I know that there is no official SP3 release) Like Rakesh told, it will be slip streamed and a few features would be added. Don't go for it!

[freshseasons]

For all i know there is one Vista Lite edition taking the rounds on torrents thats about 600mb.
Its not a good one.(Doesnt have Media center , Windows defender,Windows movie maker, etc goodies)
Its stripped to the basics.
But then it is there in one cd.
