I'm pretty sure this is the most boring desktop ever:

It's okay. The first step to recovery is understanding that you have a problem. So far, you're doing fine.

I just don't see how you even get work done...

...I mean, just look at ALL those icons in the way, it's a freaking mess on your desktop.

My PC is busy right now, so I'd just like to call attention to the fact that my two external hard drives on my Mac are called C3PO and R2D2.

Stand up for your Mac-ness Inspire! Don't let others put you down!

That said, I don't actually own a Mac, so if an angry mob knocks on your door you're on your own

Sorry for posting the anti-Apple comment. It's not right of me to judge a company based on it's products, treatment of salesmen and the representatives it hires. I'll keep it to myself.

I also don't actually hate Mac owners at all, was merely joking.

Ubuntu


And Windows 7


I'm using a second display on my laptop, hence the 1920x1080 resolution.

I have my PC dual booted with Ubuntu, but I just haven't found a reason to use it. What do you use it for, Seppuku?

What's that a picture of, Seppuku? Looks like a remade version of FF8 (we should be so lucky).

Nope, though I've had a lot of FF backdrops in the past. It's just a background I came across, I like my backgrounds just to be aesthetically pleasing, usually they're landscapes, but I liked this one.

Lenovo ThinkPad Power Manager, comes with ThinkPads.

I installed it to see what the hype was about. I've kept it installed incase I have any problems with Windows - I can access all of my files on my Windows partition but also have a stale OS to use whilst I solve the problems. I could easily grab my data if I needed a fresh Windows install. As an example@ I used it for Internet recently whilst trying to figure out why Windows kept disconnecting me from the net (whilst Linux wasn't). I find Linux starts up quicker, so if I needed to very quickly dash on the internet, it's there.

But that's about it. There's no software on there I'd use that I can't use on Windows and Windows has too much software I need to replace it.

Yeah, that's exactly what I've ended up using it for.

It looks to me like concept art of the planet Naboo, from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

Guess I'm accidentally a Star Wars geek.
