What does your desktop look like?

No separate sign. We write 100 kronor as 100 kr ( so I guess the "sign" is kr ).
The international symbol is SEK ( Like USD for dollars ).

Anyone ever try a 3D desktop? I once saw one that was a rotatable cylinder.

Might make a good christmas gift!

thats a really cool desktop, are you an artist? that looks like a scan.

Ahem, I see your making friends Lizard.....LOL

I have this talent, for nearly wherever i go i make friends like these...

Lizard, you never tried Linux, so please shut your mouth

I agree, i've never tried Linux. But after reading all i can about it, my conclusion:
it's a grad's try at making an OS. inefficient, illogical, it's structured differently and takes a different approach to security than normal, but being oddly structured is that about all that protects it. It certainly is cool that people can make OS's, but from what i see, this is just another wannabe to Windows.

Plus the amount of piracy and such it endorses is terrible, as if cracks and serials weren't bad enough, it comes bundled with about $200 (minimum)worth of hackedware, 1/4 of which the average user would use. (The rest is compilers, advanced maintenance programs, diagnostics, etc)
A lot of those cute little distributions they package? about 75% of those are professional programs rewritten just enough to fit Linux. (http://www.linux.org/apps/index.html)

But i suppose the whole reason for trying a new OS is going out on a limb. Can't blame anyone for that. And it's a step up from Mac, so it's not totally evil

But you're totally right, i've never tried it. How can i make a judgement based on other people's experiences?

Seems you guys want to discuss operating systems: I started a thread about that here, so please try to keep this thread on track
