There are some bad-ass screenshots in this thread... my only question is how, after seeing the beauty that linux can be, could anybody possibly use windows? I've never seen any windows desktops like these. I use windows daily for administrative purposes and HATE it. Are there any desktop-candy apps for windows that don't cost $$? Or any at all?

ahahha.... i downloaded a large selection of tv theme songs, and that was in it, havnt sorted throught them all yet. But if you noticed theres about 90 odd hours of music in that playlist. from Iron maiden to Infected Mushroom to Jethro Tull. The fact that its twice in that list.. accidentally double added the folder the music was in :P

Another of my FC4 box, this time showing off Gnome Radio (which works great with my Hauppague TV/radio card,) HP Printer LCD applet (which my Color LaserJet 2550n lacks, so it's extra cool) and the latest Nvidia drivers (which no longer crash on a daily basis and now configs your xorg.conf file automagically):

I'm sorry but I had to post mine, bucause I think no one has posted a picture of their console. It shows me compiling something on the right, but Earier today I was compiling X... Took me almost 4 hours to compile X alone. (New Kernels compile in about 30 minutes.)

Dualscreens on a Windows desktop, SSH over to my Xbox.
