I used to be like that. Pure plain and simple. No flashy things, lowest possible memory usage, but with my new computer, I can afford to throw a bunch of unessicary things up and still have MB to burn. Out of every configuration I have ever had, this one pleases me the most overall. Its got flash, but yet its not overcomplicated.

That desktop looks great. My XP looks like Win2K (thru settings), since I prefer the old look, but that Vista view is eye candy.

I'm still waiting to buy vista once sp1 and my Quad Q6600 G0 stepping arrives!

Here is a screenshot of my Desktop running Gentoo Linux with Fluxbox. It is not much to look at, very minimalist, the only thing visible is my system monitor "Conky" and the Fluxbox "slit". All of the applications that I run are either on the right click menu or keyboard shortcuts. The wallpaper is obviously from Oblivion; however, I mostly like it for the background design.

I can't understand why anyone would want to make their desktop mimic that of the Mac OS. Windows has natively been faster at management and browsing and Stardock is just another something to eat your RAM. Trust me, give it 1 month and you will have deleted it.

Ok, well, its been a month and I still havent deleted it........ so umm, yea.

Oh, and by the way, if you question its memory usage, currenty 3 docks running and its only using 2.6MB of ram. Now I dont know about you, but to me thats not a big memory eating program. If I cant spare 2MB of ram, i probably shouldnt be running much of anything other than Solitare.

I have a macbook pro, and although I love macos I'm also a fan of windows.

Most of my time is spend behind my windows pc though and although it isn't that pretty, most tasks can be performed faster compared to macos, sure you need to know where to look first but if you know these kind of things windows is good.
I really do not understand all of the windows bashing. And honestly the fact that my macbook pro is still equipped with a single mouse button is something I really do not understand.

Here's all I could handle for free wallpapers
My desktop changes every 30 mins to about 40 different backgrounds (have to do something with all the extra memory). It's Linux
