First, what I knew I'd like and confirmed:
I like the intetgration of PA. (more about this later)
I like most of the programs/utilites.
I like how well BT works.
I like how darned FAST it is. Probably has to do with the tweaks and XCPUScalar...
What I didn't know/think that I'd like but do like:
I like the games.
I like the Today screen setup, especially the calendar.
The AlarmClock.
HandySwitcher. I think that it is as good as WisBarLite and doesn't seem to cause the hangs that I now think I can attribute to that program.
What I'm not so fond of that I thought I'd like:
The way PA settings look and how it actually works. Without it residing in the Program Files folder, the cabs that install skins don't do so correctly. When I open the settings, skins from other Windows files that use .SKN suffix show up in the drop down list.
The Today calendar is not as configurable as I'd like. I can't set the height to be constant.
I can't find any other internal calendar other than the OEM one. And it sucks. I might try to install PocketInformant (which I love).
What I thought I wouldn't like but wanted to give a chance- but confirmed that I didn't like it:
WeatherPanel. Well, this one isn't really fair... I couldn't even find it.
UI Tweak. Tried it before and didn't like it. Still seems like it takes more to use this than just going to the Today Settings. I don't really care about the other stuff it does.
PimBackup- doesn't work any better here than on Colonel's ROM. SpeedDials never get restored properly.
LVM time. I'd be just as happy getting the time/date in the topbar.
So, is there a place to get the OEMs and settings for the items I like so I can combine them with OEMs from other Kitchens to make a ROM that is PERFECT for ME?
I hope you don't take this as an insult... it's not. I like what you've done and it has given me some ideas.

2 things - I agree about the LVM Time. I personally liked Colonel's take on this where the date and time showed up on the top bar. Lastly, I also am not terribly fond of Calendar+. It is adequate, but I prefer the O2 Calendar plugin.
Still though my fav rom and I pretty much use as is. All the other roms required some significant customization to meet my needs, especially with respect to PA.
