As I have every Friday for the past few weeks, I will start things off:

Electrode's Clean and Efficient Desktop - Taken July 11, 2003

OS: Linux
Window Manager: Fluxbox 0.1.14
Style: Basalt, my third attempt at *box styles
Wallpaper: Fireball, created in 10 minutes using Paint Shop Pro 7, Eye Candy 4000 Fire plugin (trail), Flaming Pear SolarCell plugin (flare)

Dockapps: wmitime, asmem, wmusic, wmix, wmweather+, wmcalc, wmnd

Workspace pic - Updated at last! 12-7-2003


how strong are those shelves? they look dangerous with 3 monitors on it.

Looks like MDF with at least four supporting brackets; should be plenty strong.

I have the same mounitng system and brackets, but with metal grate shelves and acording to them, tow of the vertical pieces, screwed to a stud every foot, can suppot 200lbs, up to 24 inches apart.

Alright, since I had requests for it yesterday, here's an updated desktop pic now that I've got Win XP and most of my apps reinstalled. :D hehe, jealous?
Oh yeah, almost forgot: warning to you 56kers out there, this might take awhile ;)
