Welcome to Windows XP Delta Edition!
Windows XP Delta Edition is a modification of Windows XP which aims to recreate the Windows XP Beta 2 aesthetic and bring back lost features, functions, and programs from previous versions of Windows, along with prerelease versions of Windows XP.
Customization and Extras
Windows XP Delta Edition's main look and feel is Whistler Luna, but there are many options for you. Out of the box, you get Whistler Luna, Watercolor with 5 color schemes, RTM Luna with its original color schemes, and Windows Classic; all of which contain little fixes and touch-ups.
With the optional Extras Pack, you also get Royale, Royale Noir, Embedded, and Zune, alongside the sound schemes from older versions of Windows, and a large collection of wallpapers from the Windows XP era.

Old Programs, Modernized
Windows XP Delta Edition also brings back programs and functions which either were removed from or were left unused, complete with a facelift to fit Windows XP's user interface. These include the Program Manager, the Welcome applet, Windows Media Player 6.4, Windows Media Player 95, and more.
More Consistent, More Compatible
Windows XP Delta Edition is much more neat and tidy under the hood, replacing bitmaps, icons, and other resources which do not fit Windows XP, giving Windows XP Delta Edition a familiar, yet consistent look and feel.
Windows XP Delta Edition also supports a wide range of hardware, allowing systems as low as Windows NT 3.51 and Windows 98 to directly upgrade, while also bundling in SATA drivers for more modern Vista-era machines.

See Also
While not an "official" Delta release, much like Project '05 on the Vista Delta page, Windows XP Epsilon Edition, made by Niko, is a project which aims to be an unofficial sequel to Windows XP Delta Edition. As opposed to Beta 2-era design choices, this project aims for an RC1-SP1 look and feel. Many of Epsilon's improvements have been ported to Delta, though this project may be updated much more frequently.
