      Bummer...no $$$ for new versions of stuff? That could explain the #Dev icon...;)

Yeah. :( Well, I occasionally have a little extra money, it comes real slowly. ;) I finally got Windows XP just recently (from money I earned by working for Marc Clifton :-D ). I hope to get Office XP or 2003 sometime in the near future, but at >$300, that may be a ways down the road. :sigh: David Stone wrote: That could explain the #Dev icon... Actually, I have VS.NET 2002, given to me by a kind CPian, but I'm just starting to use it, and I don't know if it'll ever completely supplant #Dev, especially as #Dev is likely to get support for .NET 2.0, whereas VS.NET 2002 will not. ;) Buying VS.NET 2004 won't happen until after VS.NET 2006 comes out, most likely. :sigh:

            Cool! Now it's mine as well. I was just listening to Obscured by Clouds when I saw your post.

                        I cruise the galleries at Alyson Hannigan Corner[^] and when I find a nice new pic of Aly I use it as my wallpaper.

                          Work: a brownish mountainous tiled image that was used by ClanBOB[^] for a while. I think it got lost in one of their many crashes... ;) Home: one of them has Windows XP's Fall Leaves image, the other uses the blue swirly one. Sorry, I don't have XP here, and Ian (who has a pic of Cortana from Halo) doesn't have those wallpapers installed, so that's the best I can do ;)

And I have my desktop set to hide all icons. OTOH, docked on one side of the desktop, I have a toolbar pointing to a set of custom HTML pages used to launch my most frequently used apps, docs, free disk space graphs, etc. As for looks, it's modeled after Visual Studio's Workspace tree view (with tabs to switch categories)
