Post your Desktop v2

Thought I'd re-post it since the other one was back in Christmas time.


Here's my Current Setup I call it Blurred Life.



-Auto Updates to what ever song is playing in Media Monkey
-Auto Updates my Twitter so I can stay updated
-Auto Updates My Weather
-Auto Updates My Gmail ( That Mail Icon )
-Auto Updates my Ram,HD,CPU,and Tempature.
-GDI Hack so my fonts render in Mac OSX format.


This is how it normally looks in Normal Usage.

This is the only way I can stay productive with everything minimized and in my view..




Resource Hacked Firefox, Title Bar Tweaks, Menus Toolbar gone, Personal Menu, Title Bar hacked so it only shows the Website & not the Firefox Version.

You be lurkin the torrents I see... But yeah I run Windows XP, Windows XP, and Ubuntu on my three systems. I want to convert one of them to W7 but i'll probably end up waiting until it's released. I beta tested Vista though.

Vista does not suck. It's actually a really good OS people just didn't have computers ready to run it. It was a huge upstep from XP, and people had to much pride to admit it was good after destroying it.

Windows 7 came out 3 years later of course it's gone be better. And no **** it required more than XP it came out later and people should have upgraded their hard ware. I ran it on 4GB of Ram and a 3.06GHz computer and it ran damn near perfect, and when I upped my ram to 6gb it ran even better.

Vista was half assed. That is the point. Windows 7 is vista 2.0 it is faster, looks a bit better and it isn't glitchy

Windows 7 is only faster because your hardware has been upgraded & the speed is normally placebo. I can find articles to back up that is pretty much placebo speed. Vista was not glitchy Sp1 made vista damn near perfect. Don't try to argue with me over computers you'll just sound ignorant uniformed and hard-headed.
