Default Shrink OS and OS 6.0?

Does anyone know if Shrink OS will work with 6.0? We have all seen the video with OS 6 on a 9700. It leaves 68mb after install but I wonder exactly how much if you strip all the bloated crapware out.

i wouldnt see why not. dont forget, you can delete certain things during the install (either by deleting the cod files or by deselecting them in the loader screen). so im sure you would be able to cut some stuff out of the install anyways.

I actually downloaded 2 different OS's and ran SAO on then. It works, but did not shrink them as much as I expected. SAO will probably need to be updated for OS 6.

Default Link to SAO?

Perhaps my Google mojo is not that strong, but I'm trying to find a link to SAO so that I can shrink OS 6 before installing on my 9700.
