New computer rocks! Kind of overkill for my needs, but that's ok.  Maybe for games using Windows on the older HD.  It'll just last me a long time, which is a good thing.

Re: May 2007 Screenshots

Wow kde can really turn on the ugly

I believe it's my taste in desktop aesthetics, rather than KDE itself. My actual design principles (such as use of corners) seem to be more popular. However, I have never gone in for brightly-coloured desktops or backgrounds with too much variance in colour and the other main environment, Gnome, I have always found deeply unsuitable, both aesthetically and functionally, for my needs.

Still, my desktop is fast and lets me access everything quickly according to my desktop design principles. A desktop really needs no further successful defence.

Hehe.  Well, can you pass on the wallpaper and up it somewhere?   I would love to give it a go.

Here is the wallpaper.

Not sure if if I-10 is along the Gulf coast, but the artist says it's in AZ which isn't very close to Gulf coast.

My advice for the day: if you get issues with font rendering performance when using EXA, set "MigrationHeuristic" to "greedy" in the xorg.conf Device section. This should make it perform about as well as XAA.

Nice gtk-theme. What's it's name?

Well, I-10 does go along the gulf coast, but according to our friend Google, it goes all the way to Arizona. So, I-10 is one long damn stretch of road!
