Well, I'll join the fray:




For those who care, the stuff in the menubar is MenuItems (you can have it monitor current network, disk, ram, and cpu activity). The blue orb is the expose blob. You can use xupport or several other apps to enable it (it's built into the OS). It just does all windows in that app... not much else... Also, it turns down to about 10% transparency when the cursor is off of it.

All as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as Love.

Here is today's desktop. looking west towards Cleveland OH, over Lake Erie. You can see the steam exhaust from Perry Nuclear plant which looks like a tornado in the lower right.

I just noticed that the waves in that shot have a really odd purplish look on this Win2k box at work. Weird.

my dual-screen setup (left - 1600x1200, right - 1280x854):



nothing fancy, just a couple of Konfabulator widgets, and iTerm in place of Terminal. And TransparentDock providing the darkened Dock.

Oh, and that's really Safari, not Internet Explorer, in the Dock -- but I ended up pasting the IE icon onto Safari so visitors wouldn't be confused ("Where's the Internet?")
