So anyways, people who think their Desktop is cool, please show it off with a screenshot!

It would be quite sad if true - but the pic was from the first google hit I found. really!

I hate stacks so much, that I only have Leopard on test machines and not on my main machine.
What was Apple thinking?!? It was so easy before - a folder - in the dock - with files and other folders inside that I could maneuver through back to the desktop if I wanted.... ugh.

Whew! Heh...

My co-worker and I were just considering "downgrading" back to Tiger, but he's concerned about some files not being "backwards-compatible." Does anyone know of any potential pitfalls?

Ironic that one of Apple's latest commercials picks fun at people downgrading back to XP.

I can't put this in the OS X thread since it's, you know, not OS X.

Sell or send me your vintage Mac things if you don't want them.

Why would anyone not keep the doc to the lift and hidden?

And shifuimam, what's with your super-wide screen?
