themes in windows xp? wat process?

[legolas]

hi,

in xp editions, we hav inbuilt windows XP themes in addition to the windows classic themes.. and also in windows XP MCE(media center edition)... there is anotehr theme "Royale theme"... does this extra theme occupy memory when compared to windows classic theme? if so how much does it occupy? wher can i see it? wat is the process responsible for loading this theme at startup? i ask this coz i am impressed with a theme from stylexp and am intending to try the freeware/trialware for a while. so it approximately takes 3 MB in process. if this software and default windows xp/ xp MCE themes take almost the same amt, then i dont mind switching...
