I like a generally uncluttered desktop, so you won't find much stuff there, and that makes it kind of boring. :zzz:

I should be able to switch it with an Athlon 64 without any problems, right? Or would I have to reconfigure some stuff? What about just a better Semperon?
(It usually is fine, but when rendering some web pages, like Omnimaga, or applications that are kind of resource-intensive, it slows down. I use Firefox/Konqueror, and they both can be pretty slow. It also seems like there are a few bugs in Beryl....)
EDIT: Btw, I have kind of good RAM (about a gigabyte of dual-channel DDR2), and a kind of good hard drive (although that probably wouldn't affect it too much....), so it's mostly me ~1GHz Semperon CPU I'm worried about.

Changed the system font to superazor (trying to imitate the Wipeout game font)
Hacked it to use unsigned themes
Changed the cursor and audio sounds to the Vista versions
Changed the system icons using IconPackager
Removed the start bar using ObjectDock
Added shadows to the windows using yzShadow
Added ability for transparency using glass2k
And a few registry edits to remove all the clutter from the desktop and start menu (recycle bin was removed for example)
A few tweaks to the program interfaces and some cool backgrounds/themes and this is what you get:

It's a graphical interface sprite/pic/map editor. With it you can freely edit 8x8/16x16 in B&W/Grayscale in any combination with a push of a button.

Luckily I had purchased my TI-84+SE just before the program editor was removed from TI-Connect. Since the calc came with TI-Connect on a CD, I have a perfectly preserved installation file :)
If you are interested I would be willing to post the installation file.

Actually, it is called PrintScreen. There generally is a little button to the right of F12 and above Insert. Pressing that at any moment (I think) captures the current monitor screen to the clipboard. Open up Paint, paste it in, and save it.

I bet it hard to find icons on the desktop :PI see:
AcidPro, AntiN00b, Metroid Expansion Set, Bowling, Lost Legends, PindurTI, QuickTime, Ti-83 Flash Debugger, Photosmart, Mario, Reuben Quest, WarCraft III, Pokemon Purple, IE7, DarkBasic, xLIB, Implicit, wabbitemu, some roms, some metriod pics, Illusiat, some shortcuts, some mp3s, and some random folders/zipped.
Did I miss anything :P
EDIT: I actually saw a desktop filled to the max with stuff at work the other day.
