Stinkpad: That's exactly how it should be done, and that's how mine looks when I'm not on Windows ;p

Sharon: I'm bracing myself...

Good stuff. I'm a FreeBSD man myself, and it's mostly what I stick to. I also like Debian, and recently I've been dabbling with Xandros, a commercial Linux based on Debian.

If it wasn't for the fact that there are no Photoshop-esque image editors for Linux besides the Gimp (which I fucking hate) I would have no windows boxes on my network, at all. Wine never seems to work properly for me either :<

Well, here's mine. http://lodge.glasgownet.com/~bagpuss/screenshot3.jpg - I spend most of my time in a text console, which is a bit boring. When there isn't a text console, it's like this - http://lodge.glasgownet.com/~bagpuss/screenshot1.jpg

Hell yea, Amiga OS. Now you're talking. Is that true Amiga OS or just an emulator? I know there is a window manager for FreeBSD that looks like that.
