Obligatory desktop thread
Well, I've got nothing to do for about 15 minutes, so let's have another of those threads where we all post a shot of our desktop. I'll get the ball rolling:

Linux as of a couple weeks ago.
The toolbar on the left slides in and out only when my cursor is over to the left side of the screen, it's not usually out like that.

Here, with one of my more favourable backgrounds (I use Webshots with an interval of 1 day).

BTW, I'm only using Creative PlayCenter because for some blasted reason WinAmp will NOT play for five minutes without crashing (I use WinME )

I wear the badge with pride, man.

There's a new version of Samurize (a complete overhaul that's much more flexible) for the system monitoring stuff, but it's still in alpha. So I'm going to redesign it shortly. Can't wait!!!

Yeah - I'm a passionate, chaotic person - a multi-tasker.
Girls dig passionate guys.

I was dizzy because it was a chaotic mess, not because of all of the stuff you're doing.

Girls like guys who aren't slobs.

Err, I'm changing the background soon. This one is mostly the fault of my direct paternal ancestor.

P.S. Winamp3 uber alles.

Orange: yes, I know, but it is not my computer...yet.

Leo: If only. Unfortunately the skin I love (Steel_this_amp) is only available for Winamp 2, same with the ultimate toolbar plugin. Also, one majr gripe I have is that w/ WA3, when I quit, and reopen, I can't just hit play and start at the song I had playing just before I quit. That is really annoying when I have ~400 songs (which, BTW, are all free and legal, mostly d/loaded from Audiogalaxy featured artists and MP3.com).
