A... Subakzu Thunder Beast 30 300 K? ... Is that even a car? But nice ride, whatever it is. Do you actually own one?

I have a Metal Gear Solid desktop? :cool2: Guess that means I'm officially obsessed. Also notice I ordered my icons by picture shape. That's right... you can download a function that orders your desktop icons by shape. ... Dunno why anyone would.

The desktop of the comp I'm using for the next week. (I'm taking a Java class at MTU - since I'm not home I can't get to my computer.)

I'll post my desktop when I get home. But for now you get this.

the enzo... you have good taste my freind, but I think the benz slr mclaren pwns all other cars, with the possible exeption of the ford GT

oh and it's the enzo ferrari, only one like that, and made so because it's named after the founder of ferrari, 'Enzo'

It is named after him, but it's still called the Ferrari Enzo. Also, you have rather bland taste in cars, I must say. I'm not as big a fan of the automotive world as you seem to be (at least, not for the aesthetics) but were I to use one as my desktop, it would be this:

I would also like to make you jealous at this stage by telling you that yesterday I went for a track day at Rockingham Park Speedway in this:

Needless to say, it was awesome.

http://en.wikipedia....ri_(automobile)

look under the segment called 'name'

and I wouldn't call my taste bland, just aesthetic over power, since I'd never take any of my cars over about 100mph, I'm also a fan of the audi r8.

if it was for power I'd go for either the ultimate aero TT or the ferrari F50 GT, and for something a bit more exotic the F1 Caparo (the only street legal F1 car), or the gumpert apollo.

Huh. Well then, I blame Top Gear. They keep referring to it as the Ferrari Enzo and that's what it's called on the lap times board. Therefore, I assume it is correct. You know, though, Rawlo, any car that can do over 100mph doesn't really narrow it down much these days. My Nissan Micra (yes, it's lame and weak, but it does the job) has a top speed of 120mph, which coincidentally was my average speed in the touring car. <:)

And have you ever heard of "Line Up Icons" (or align to grid or whatever the fuck it's called)

I prefer simplicity. All the icons I either use on a daily basis, or are what I'm currently working on. I do believe I am a perfectionist (eg. I organise my mp3 player if the songs don't follow the correct... 'format'), but it's done me no harm.

....I'm much of the same way Puppeteer. I use a dock program like ObjectDock (my favorite) or Rocketdock to keep icons off my desktop, yet still be able to use them all.

It is. Yet I must ask why you still choose to have Internet Explorer when you have Chrome.

Very simple. All of the things i use are in my objectdock. I use vista, but the task bar along the bottom is hidden, mainly because I didn't think to mouse over it.
