That's looking really nice, but the word "Provides" is really not needed
in the text.

"Normal" is the setting you're expecting most users to use. You need to
word your text that way too. I'm not sure what improved usability means
to an end-user, so I think you need to phrase it in terms of the
required computer, rather than usability - we are talking about desktop
effects here after all.

Not happy with the word "Aesthetically" because somebody who uses
English as a second language has likely no idea what you're talking
about. Apart from the whole discussion around the idea of aesthetics
being in the eye of the beholder.

The text can be reduced further:

    * None: Simple Desktop without effects. For a slower computer.
    * Normal: Suitable for most computers.
    * Extra: Full Effects. Requires a faster computer.
    * Custom: Personal Settings.
