How can I get a normal Ubuntu install to have the menu of the Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
I tried installing the Netbook Remix, but it ran horribly (I don't know why either, system monitor was saying both my cores were 90+%, but no processes were using over 10%. I have an E2160 dual core pentium @ 1.8Ghz each, and an 8600GT and everything else works fine with a normal installation. Anyway, does anyone know what packages that can create the sleek menus from the netbook remix on a desktop?
Thanks.

Yep, it's called netbook-launcher. It will automatically add itself to your startup applications, so be aware of that if you change your mind about using it.
Alternatively you can install the package ubuntu-netbook-remix which depends on every package installed in UNR, but I'm not sure if you'd want to go that far. I'm actually running Moblin at the moment on my Netbook and it's brilliant if still a little bit rough in parts. I understand that Ubuntu are adding support for it at the moment and it'll be available in the future.
