A long time ago we made a topic like this, but everyone has different desktops now.

Let's share!

I'm running Puppy Linux 4 on my favourite laptop of my two.

I love the simplistic look of it, and the ability to really customize the window manager. (I'm running JWM which is a pretty good one)

Also notice the multiple desktops. I got five set up so I can be awesomely productive and stuff, or do stuff while I'm compiling a C++ program or something. Puppy Linux comes with a shmup so I usually play that or something.

Puppy Linux is based off Slackware, which I've grown to love. Slackware = mmm...


...and yes I turned my menu button into a kitty. :P

Hahahaha, the Azumanga Daioh kitty!

Is that what that is? I just thought it looked cute.

My desktop:

...is that a realistic rendition of a Care Bear?

...I just laughed really hard. Can I get a copy of that picture?

Yeah, I'll PM it to you.

EDIT: Yart: I just tried Puppy Linux via VMware. It's nice. :D

Alright, as I just reinstalled both of the OSs on my netbook, I think I should share this awesome wallpaper I found.

First specs:

• Acer Aspire ONE ZG5
• 3 cell battery (totally sucks, don't recommend it after a while)
• 1 GB ram
• 120GB HD

I have it dual booting Windows XP Home Edition and Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04.

First Windows (uxtheme patch running the Zune final theme.):


And Ubuntu (New Wave theme):


The wallpaper I got was from here and I think it looks pretty nice. I'm the kind of person that likes a fairly dark wallpaper that is or stays true to the original art.

Mine.

WIN

My Asus Eee PC running Eeebuntu. When I changed to this from the pack-in distro, Xandros Linux, the length of my battery life literally DOUBLED from an hour and a half to three hours. So I'm impressed with this distro.

Nice desktop Doc. It seems netbooks are taking over. Which one do you have?

This topic is pointless.

It's just posting a picture with icons on it.

I started it.

*Yart slaps forehead.

Check out this kickin' 'puter screen y'all!

EEE PC 901

OMFG DON'T DELETE SQIV!! :( YOU'LL CRASH THE SYSTEM!!

Ah. Nice choice ;)

I remember when I was looking for my netbook, I typed on one of the EEEs that had the like 7 inch screens. Horrible keyboard, wayyy to small.

But it really does seem like netbooks are taking over...

Netbooks are ACTUAL laptops. What we call "laptops" today are the friggin' size of full PCs!!

Skye, what kind of desktop is that? XD

It's true. Regular laptops are frickin' giant. In addition, I overhauled my GUI a couple days ago. All the aesthetic appeal of a mac, for about 600 bucks less. :P

I wonder what the toilet is...

You drag icons to the toilet to delete files.

C'mon! Has nobody here heard of Sierra?!

It's the super computer's interface. I feel so much pity for those who missed out on these gems.

Hey, I've played every Space Quest game... But I lost the CD so I never beat any of them. :P

:P That's a shame. This screen shows up in the last like five minutes of one of them.

Space Quest 4. I still remember the day we bought it. Me and my dad went to this computer store and we were looking at the games. I wanted this bugs bunny game thing for the PC and my dad had to convince me to get SQ4 instead. Once I remembered that I loved SQ1... I caved and I am so glad that I did. SQ4 is what I consider to be the second best of the Space Quest series. #1 is classic, #2 is full of fun, #3 is ok, #4 is a newer classic, #5 I found they started to drift away from the charm of the earlier ones, #6 I've yet to really get into it, #7 I cried when it was cancelled... after they even released a preview video...

The Space Quest series is one of my absolute favorite game series of all time.

can they be found for DOSbox?

Woah, after watching some YouTube videos, it seems the Homestar Runner game Peasant's Quest and based off of Space Quest. (as well as other games from the publisher)

Wow was I in the dark.

It's sad how people just caught on to that. :/ New generation of gamers...

*Yart sighs.

Yeah well, I'm sorry for being born in the 90s and growing up on the Nintendo 64 :P

Man I do love that system.

Yeah, Peasant's Quest strikes me more of a parody of the King's Quest series than Space Quest but yeah, same graphics style and such considering King's Quest didn't look that good until #3.

If you want any of the Space Quest or Kings Quest games I have all of them (legit), I could see what I could do as far as putting CD images online.

And you must say you want them all too. They're really great games you shouldn't pass up. I hate adventure games but they have a place in my heart... even if I can't beat a single one of them.

DOSBox will play them just fine. :)

Really? You hate adventure games?

Space Quest 1 was the one game that got me hooked on PC gaming. It's like my first game. I will forever treasure and love it.

I just hate them because they're so cryptic and I get lost easily. Also I have a short attention span. I love watching someone else solve the puzzles though, or trying to help. I can't play them alone.

I just(like an hour ago) switched from Eeebuntu to Cruncheee Linux. And the UI looks NICE.

I like the simplicity of it. Is it fast like Puppy? :)

Also SkyeFyre, never trust a revolving door.

Yeah, it's pretty fast.

MAAAAAAAAC

Mine is more beautiful.



There's another icon on the desktop now.

It's not in the screenshot.

It's the image file for the screenshot.

What is Meow.com?
