Just for fun. Besides, I didn't copy the start menu, I just copied the taskbar and the start button. Here is todays Vector desktop:

Isn't it annoying how DreamLinux is just 30MB to big for a CD? I downloaded it once and once it finished downloading I realized that it wouldn't fit on a CD so I couldn't use it on my system.

I hate messy desktops, Especially, omg especially cluttered icon desktops.

I can see how people can work on a computer that has no more room on its desktop because every single picture downloaded in the last 3 months is on the desktop!!!

There are so many applications that act as application shortcut trays out there that i cant believe people would let it get out of hand like that, i Use ObjectDock and a Gadget for Vista and i have NO Icons on my desktop at all, i jsut dont need them, i hate them being there.

Ill post a pic of my desktop up when i get home, im on my girl friend's PC at the moment. Stop cluttering your desktop's people!!! Theres no need

Is Vmware free to download? If not is there a good Linux virtual machine program that is free?
