    Have you played with Compiz yet? People at work see my desktop and all the effects and they want it turned on. I tell 'em too bad, gotta get Linux. LOL

    I switched since a patch from Microsoft broke the validation service in Vista 64-bit... It died 30 days later. F-ing POS Microsoft.

                            Where can I grab the original photo? It's pretty awesome, can't seem to find the original thread though. Thanks.

                              Oddly enough, someone put it in the NWS thread. It wasn't posted that long ago but you might have to go several pages back.

                                Resized down from 2960x1050. It doesn't line up because the 2 monitors are running different resolutions, but they line up pretty good next to the actual monitors.
