I see what appears to be Windows 98, and a wallpaper saying 'Linux rocks'.
Baffled, I am.

Sam.

mabe he want s to transfer to linux but is afraid of change. therefore he is phasing it in slowly, first a background, then a similar colour scheme, sound effects, icons, then eventually the entire OS. or maybe he doesnt know what linux is and thought the pic was cool
Bye bye thankyou I love you.

Yeah it reminds me of that scene in "Full Metal Jacket" by Stanley Kubrick:

"You write 'Born To Kill' on your helmet AND wear a peace symbol button on your jacket? Is that supposed to be some kind of a sick joke?"

"Sir, no, Sir!! I was trying to say something about the duality of men, Sir! The Jungian thing, Sir!"

<uncomfortable silence from the superior officer>

"You better pull your self together, son, and help along until the final vicotry. AND you should remove the damn peace button!" :)

Oh and here is my desktop. DESKTOP
int do_you_like_me;
if (do_you_like_me == 1) Display ("You can call me Al");
else {}

Perhaps he has a dual boot, or another pc for linux, or just happens to like that bg :P

i have always hated windows and been for a long fan of linux, this has been my desktop all the time.
in my new computer i am going to put linux windows and finally dos
linux will be my number 1
windows will only be so i can play some games
dos because i am scripting in qbasic(quickbasic) and so i can play some abandonware games like mi1 and 2, and so on

Like Eric said, MI 1 and 2 are NOT abandonware.
- Oh great, I'm stuck in colonial times, tentacles are taking over the world, and now the toilets backing up.
- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

Heh I feel lucky I don't speak Mandingrin.

Why? Because it's the most common dialect? :)

I hear Mandarin is becoming a lot more wide-spread in China. The government also says that it's officially the main language.

You got it!

Coming Soon!

No, but because I don't speak it.

Yes, but it's official only in the mainland, not here.

Oh yeah, Hong Kong. Lol, I heard stories about there...

Especially how the people of Hong Kong consider it a separate country from China.

I don't like bringing up old threads, but i changed my desktop with a ride from Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 which i made, and it looks really good as desktop wallpaper.

RCT3 is an awesome game, but the peeps at the RCT3 forums would beg to differ. (I'm not a member there, just a lurker)

Just something interesting I thought of. Anyone who feels like it, take a screenshot of your desktop (try to shrink the size down a tad to fit on the page).

I'm just curious as to what desktop icons everyone has, what backround and what OS.

I'll start with mine.

(p.s anything personal can be blurred etc...)

When I was a little kid we had a sand box. It was a quicksand box. I was an only child... eventually.

Well, HERE's mine. Check out how funnily I've renamed the Ad-Aware file! (At least those who have played Quest For Glory games understand the joke :P)
