Desktop War!

Woo, December means new desktop time: Here it is, and yea, the lights blink.

I'd kill myself.

Why? It's changed now, anyway.

Konfabulator? Maybe because the programmers were once employed by an Apple subcompany and are all Mac enthusiasts. The program was made for Macs and was then ported to Windows.

Not saying it to that, we must have been writing our posts at the same time and you posted before me. I was directing that towards Masons post.

Then what are you talking about? My desktop seems to be that of the discussion, are you saying that Apple invented calendars and the weather?

Actually, I think Microsoft has a patent on the word "weather" and you probably owe them royalties for using it in a sentence.

So do you!

FUCK!

FUCK!

I'd bet that Bell put a copyright on "FUCK" in the old days, since that was the original Unix developers' catch phrase

I am trying out some new dockapps in a pilot stage:

The first ons is a handy dandy calculator.  I was hoping for one that was just like a pocket calculator, where I could just click the buttons, and it woudl show up on a little screen.  One of those DOES exist, but the original site it was on is dead, and I'm not seeing any mirrors.  But this one lets me right-click, and it brings up a little window where I can do calculations, and it saves them there.  It's not bad, it can do hex and octal too, and apparently some functions.

Then I have one that just displays my workspaces.  It also has bubble-help things so I can see the name when I mouseover.  I'm so used to control-alt-left and right, I dont' think I'll ever use this much.  But we'll see.

Third, I have a mounter majigger.  It lets me mount/umount/eject my cdrom drive with one *clickety*.  It also shows me the space remaining on my mounts, if I go left and right.  Optionally, it changes it automatically every couple seconds, but I don't hold with that.  I might try it out later, though
