What's in a desktop...
So, what's on your desktop?
I got the following: Recycle Bin My Computer 31/2 Floppy (A) CD Drive MS-DOS (C) System (D) Storage (E) Network Storage (H) Smart Notebook JBuider4 Turbo C++ Microsoft Visio SQL Plus SQL Plus Web |
Should this be here or in nonsense :)
It's a funny thread subject... Let's see... I got "silvy's home" "trash" "c" "d" "e" "start here" and a picture of a cloud.... |
Isn't there a "Post Your Desktop" thread on TFP somewhere? If so, that could take place of this one. If not,
My Computer My Network Places Recycle Bin Internet Explorer Desktop Items (folder for often-used stuff) I also have 0 programs on my Start/Programs listing. I have anything that I use on quicklaunch...I can't stand having programs on the Start Menu or on the Desktop! -Lasereth |
Pfft, my quick launch is loaded with programs. I've got all my network monitoring/intrusion detection programs there, along with all my programming things. My desktop...it's full of crap. I don't use that as much as the quick launch or the run menu, start menu takes to long
|
The recycle bin....... and a picture of Bessie Bardot stretched out naked across the roof of a white limo,
Desktop icons are teh suck..... |
A lot. More than I would like. But, I dont like filling up my quick launch with more than four programs, and I dont like the start menu, so I dont have that much of a choice...
|
Recycle Bin and My Computer in the lower right. I like a nice and plain desktop

Absolutely nothing, I only use it for temporary storage and I think the recycle bin is ugly. Does that make me strange?

Not a single thing. I use Gnome, and I killed Nautilus dead. My desktop no longer supports icons on it, which is just the way I like it.
Now, my Gnome panels are jam-packed. But those icons are tiny and don't get in my way much. |

My Computer
Recycling Bin Couple of desktop items I like to keep my desktop clean. Like to look at the background sometimes and don't like stuff blocking my view. |
I like to keep mine bare too. I've got 7 icons:
My Computer My Network Places Recycle Bin My Documents VPN.lnk a text file my Shared network folder My Quick Launch bar, however, has all my games and programs on it. I think, after I deleted the 2 games of my HD I had recently, I'm at 18. :) |
I mainly use it for temporary storage. But there is
nothing being stored right now. Other than that here is what is there: My Computer Network Neighborhood Recycle Bin There are about 6 programs in my quicklaunch bar too. |
Who needs a desktop when you have quicklaunch.
Only time I ever see the desktop is when i reboot. |

It takes less effort to type in the name of the app, than move through menu's with the mouse. :) As you can see here |
