I've decided to go for the clean look now, rather than the cluttered mess I had before.

Windows Blinds and Aquadock

and image sized down to not look too silly.

We're sorry, you've taken a perfectly good Windows box and made it look like a Mac.

Yes, I'm posting this instead of my desktop, as it's currently extremely boring due to reinstalling XP recently.

Well, after Prom's shame (jokes

) and Mikool's poor effort (no jokes

), here's my new desktop:

The clock, date and weather are thanks to Yahoo Widgets
The theme is Zippo, using WindowsBlinds.

Hey, Apples are PC's too you know. Big, white shiny ones that go "paarrrmmm!" when you start them up.

Here's my work one, although I change my desktop often (sometimes multiple times a day). Bottom right I have a webcam set up so I can see who's coming down the corridor (and quickly shut down all my porn) which you can also access from the world wide internet web here http://www.skuzzlebutt.orcon.net.nz/ I have it set to only update every 10 minutes to save bandwidth (ironic given how much stuff I download at work each day) but you sometimes see someone roaming around. Mostly though you just see piles of stuff on my desk.

I've also changed the default appearance using a skin I got from CrystalXP.

Rockin!

Nothing to exciting here, just plain old XP theme.
