vLite condenses Windows Vista installation from the normal 15GB to 1.4GB by giving the user the option to omit features of the operating system. The creator is croatian college student Dino Nuhagic. Computerworld has an interview with him. In an excerpt:
“Who can justify a 15GB operating system?” asked Dino Nuhagic, a fifth-year student from Split, a Croatian city on the Adriatic. Not Nuhagic, or the uncounted users who have turned to his creation, vLite.
The free program lets users pick and choose which Vista components, hot fixes, drivers and even language packs are installed, then builds a disk image that can be burned to a DVD for unattended installation of the operating system.
The rest of the interview is found here.
