hah girlie desktop
mouse input is simple and non technical. admit it, GUI is much more appealing than a keyboard use interface- moving the mouse, having a sense of where you are on the screen, what it happening. having pretty graphics also really help.
and for many apps a keyboard would be considerably limited, like for gaming (i'm thinking of fps like call of duty)

Yes, it's simple. But it's also inefficient. To the average end user, it's the easier option.
That's just my window manager, you know. For example, I'm using opera right now. I'm not limited in application use. I still have a cursor (X Windowing System)
I just like to use my keyboard more
But to each his/her own!

Well, then I guess it doesn't really confuse you, if you know the answer, now does it? :P
Keyboard input is more efficient only in certain circumstances. People forget that, but doing from the CLI what most people use their computers for would be silly. You could use ViM to write your school papers, but why would you? To feel cool? Watching youtube in text mode would be pretty darn silly (Heh, although they do have an ASCII renderer, although a)I think they took it down and b)It still renders as video)
Oh, uh, I would post my desktop, but I am on my netbook with Win 7 starter so it's uninteresting.
lol. those girls are obviously a copy/paste job. look at their features.. they look EXACTLY the same.. i don't care if they're twins, that's just lazy shit. man i hope this new duke nukem game is good..Star":2kx4peaa said:My background changed, but as you can see it's for the better.

I don't think Star cares about the girls, 'cause he has me. He cares about Duke sitting on his throne. Hehe.
Here's mine. It's not uber cool, and I don't even know how most of the stuff got on there as I share this computer with Star a lot (I don't like my other one, har har har). My other computer is an XP with a totally different background and full of virus protections.

VISTAS FTW!
Do you honestly own Reason? I mean, it's the best synth and composing software I've ever tried, but it costs $350 for the software alone, and getting a significant number of ReFills costs even more. As for the last statement, I prefer Win7. Same GUI, more options, smarter addons, and fewer issues.

Awesome Bro
Uh, he said Vistas. As in, a view.

Problem with that is, vistas have existed since before humanity. I thought it was generally acknowledged that they were awesome by now. As for the way he's using that, I'm pretty sure he means backgrounds.
