Hah, you should get me some of those cards if they're free lol, I'm sick of spending all of my coke points on music. I could be saving them up to buy a walk-on role in a Hollywood movie

How do you ppl manage to find anything on those desktops? That'd drive me crazy.

You must have a small desk, cause I have two 19" CRTs could probably fit 3 more comfortably.

I like having a desktop without many shortcuts. Its like my house. I can't stand having stuff laying around, so I put the stuff away and organize it (usually those times when it is really hard for me to get to sleep, I clean x_x).

The My Games folder has a bunch of folders in it like "Shoot-Em-Up" and "Platformer", and inside those folders are only shortcuts to games. I don't like having game shortcuts outside of that folder. Everything is organized and doesn't take that long to get.

Then I use the start menu for all the other shortcuts.

Rubiks Cube's desktop is way too empty for me though...

Quote: "Love that recycle bin, scoffin hard at the newb who thought it was a mac ahaha, "

thanks I like a big recycle bin because I go through a lot of files, like games downloaded that I don't like, etc.

and its neither a mac or linux. Both Ugh and zzz were wrong... x_x

Lol, wow Indi, that desktop on the c64 brings back some memories. Of course not so many as you have I'm sure. We got a c64 from my uncle when it was already a stone age piece of equipment. I was like 7 I think, so that puts us at about 1994 or 1995...
