I just installed a second hard drive on this computer so Windows is shiny fresh at the moment... should end up cluttered again before long.

Planning my Linux install for the second (old) drive - currently D:\

I was reading a review of Gnome2 last night actually. Seems they have a bit to go till it's as good as KDE though. :)

I haven't changed my wallpaper in a year or better. :rolleyes:

I hate change. :mad:

I love my TrueLaunch bar though. Which is what I left expanded.
All those icons expand like that. I never go to Start>Programs>SomthingElse :D

Quite boring but it does the job :)

I always use Winkey+R - I never use start or desktop icons (programs install them... i can't be bothered removing them).

I was trying MDK beta 9.0.

So not to be bias I tried Gnome 2.0 FIRST. I thought it was amazing but then when I tried KDE 3.x I was disappointed. KDE is so much easier to use/configure. Everything is much easer to find. It is light years ahead of gone :mad:

Have to agree I like KDE better then Gnome. I can capture my screen on windows but how do you do it on linux? :D im still learning

DigiCrime

Both Gnome and KDE come with "screen capture" programs. pm me if you need more help. At least mandrake ships both with screen capture programs

I would take winamp back a few songs and play the Coldplay ones again :)

The "TODO" list is commendable, although I keep a hard copy of mine... :D

That is one nice desktop.
Great picture, i also think pictures of the top of a bridge looking down is good also, gets you a bit scared and that.

xtstrike, i'd look into a new graphics card or monitor, you seem to have a few black areas :D

XTStrike
08-24-2002, 08:38 AM
yeah, it is irritating, its what happens when your monitor/graphics card get so much abuse from unruly members, it starts to just automatically put anything relating to a WHT member into a little black hole. :D
