We haven't had a desktop thread for a while.

Here's mine with my latest hi res pic from NASA (I've got another really cool one of John Glenn looking like he's crapping himself in orbit).

If only Ming would show us his..... some insight into that cruel and merciless mind.

This is it - he looks like a bug just crawled into the crotch of his suit.

I guess people just don't look themselves when they are hurtling along at thousands of miles an hour.

Take a screenshot of it (I don't know how to do this in Windows - In Mac it is Apple-Shift 3) reduce it to less than 800 pixels using some graphics program (I use Graphic Converter) and attach it using the "choose file" dialog when you post.

Excellent, Monolith. I see you are running Jag,

Have you tried using Synergy yet (it's in my pic above)? Really good app. My trial period runs out soon, so I'm going to send the guy the five bucks.

Asher, trying to show us how many friends he's got. I never thought anyone was actually called "Johnny Boy".

What the hell is Mailwasher? Does it take out naked pics or something?

I've got Trillian set to always-on-top, so you can deal with it.

I just cleaned up that list, actually.

Mailwasher is a program I use to check my mail. It logs into your mail server and doesn't actually download anything, it contacts many spam-centers and determines which senders are spam, then bounces the email back to them so they think I don't exist. Then it launches Outlook and downloads my real mail.

I literally dragged the Quick Launch bar to the top of the screen. It does seem to take a few attempts though.
