    This actually isn't as cluttered as it could be, mostly because I did a clean install of Windows when I built this computer last year.

    I have a rotating set of astronomy pictures. I should get more.

    Edit: Also, there's programs for Win 7 to put a different picture on the second monitor, right? I should probably get one.

    Look at this makes me extremely uncomfortable.

    Despite the fact I live like a slobby trash mess of an apartment, I cannot have a cluttery Windows desktop like that for whatever reason.

    Also, high five, @MetroidZero. Phone wallpaper buddies.

    when I get busy my computer desktop, much like my actual desktop, becomes a cluttered mess

    but I always know exactly where everything is

  • ASimPersonASimPerson Cold... ... and hard.Registered User regular
    Indeed.

    Though I guess it's a little ironic that on my iPhone I put all my apps into folders except for the all the built-in things that were on the homescreen by default.

    Wait wait wait, hold the phone.

    Is that fucking Windows 98? On something like a 14 inch monitor?

  • AbracadanielAbracadaniel Registered User regular
    no

    that's win7 with classic mode turned on

    at least, I hope so

  • Goose!Goose! That's me, honey Show me the way home, honeyRegistered User regular
    Nah, I think that's Windows 7, 98 didn't do textless taskbar, did it?

  • mensch-o-maticmensch-o-matic Registered User regular
    if you push the little line thingy far enough that you smoosh them together then i think it does icon only but i havent used it in years

    i dont even know why youd turn classic on with win7 when there are so many actually attractive minimalist themes out there??

  • AbracadanielAbracadaniel Registered User regular
    uses less system resources

  • mensch-o-maticmensch-o-matic Registered User regular
    how could you run steam and skype but not aero !

  • Donovan PuppyfuckerDonovan Puppyfucker A dagger in the dark is worth a thousand swords in the morningRegistered User regular
    Maybe it's a netbook? That would explain the resolution.

    not saying you can't

    but why have those resources being consumed by what amounts to window dressing when it could be better put toward actual application processes

  • mensch-o-maticmensch-o-matic Registered User regular
    id hate to use something so ugly that i would see all the time but yeah thats makes sense

    also looking at his taskbar icons hes definitely using vista/7

    It looks like he has the taskbar set to autohide anyway. Which is slightly better but good god it is still ugly
