It's that 'dry heat', or so they say, that makes it *feel* cooler... :\

I've been sweating my whole life, in this 'dry heat', and it doesn't *feel* cooler to me.

Personally, I've noticed that 105 is the cross-over point. Below 105, you takes your chances. Above 105, you're gonna die unless you take appropriate measures.

Out of curiosity, what is it in Winders that you cannot do in Linux?

I like that picture tweakboy, it almost looks fake... Like a movie set or something. I bet there's injuns behind those rocks :^D

Very simple. I love what you do with linux VinDSL. I've been debating moving my desktop to debian because I can get WoW, CSS and TF2 all working on my laptop but then there are some other things I cant get to work. I don't know if its worth it or not =(

Sweet & simple desktop!

The nice thing about Linux Desktops (there are many) is you're only limited by your imagination.

I make my own custom Windows themes too. But, Windows is very limited as to what you can do.

In the old days, I ran StarDock WindowBlinds.

StarDock walked out of Microsoft HQ, in Redmond, with all their code. MS hired StarDock to skin XP (Teletubby look) and they had a falling out. LoL!

I guess my point is, unless you use a crutch, like WindowBlinds, or steal code from MS, you're never going to get a unique look in Windows. :sneaky:

So, yes, I think it's worth it...

New background. First FFXIV background I didn't hate. I also ended up pinning Opera to get no icons on my desktop.

In sig - desktop is too cluttered right now and I'm too lazy to clean it up.

What are you using to generate your system information VinDSL ? I have a ubuntu box I'd like to copy you. :D The one I have running is terrible!

I'm not on my main rig right now which is a dual head Linux Mint 9 machine. But here is my more used laptop in front of the TV in the living room.
