Description
My home desktop computer, which I have had for quite some time now. Sometime in the next year I am going to forego this machine and get myself an Apple workstation. I adore my PowerBook and need something slightly more powerful and am yearning for a machine that is desktop based.The lower-right is a sneak preview of the business card that *excelsium has come up with. It is the front side of a two-sided, vertical, rounded-corner business card.
Workstation stats:
- HP Pavillion a530n
- AMD Athlon 3200 64bit Processor
- 512MB RAM (bumped up to 1GB)
- 200GB HDD (extra 160GB USB2 HDD)
- DVD-R/RW (extra Dual Layer DVD+-R/RW USB2)
- CDROM
Skins and customization information:
WindowBlinds: iFlex by danilloOc (WB5)
Icons: GANT by mattahan
Miranda IM clist: jarkoliciously by me
Miranda IM Icons: Ripped from AdiumX by me (personal use)
Wallpaper: Havona by ANTIFAN-REAL
Miranda IM has been heavily modified by way of the following plug-ins: clist_nicer+, tweakui, tabsrmm and ieview. All can be found with a simple Google search.
Windows taskbar modified to make use of large icons in the quicklaunch area. This is standard Windows functionality and does not use any special software.

I've really been missing out, this thing is great! Thanks for the tip, scott.
I'm currently using the "Retro" skin. it came with my download of WindowBlinds.Enhanced.v5.0.WinALL-DEVOTED, probably comes stock with the actual client.

Sweet desktop. I'm running a compaq x.x I really need to get a better computer thou. I kill my home computer with all the art, and programs I run on it. I think intead of buying a whole new computer, when I have the money I'm going to use the case of this one and just take it apart and get all new hardware and put in it. Atleast I could get it where it'd decently run with what I want it to do. Many of the pre-mades I've bought ended up dieing after a few years completely so I'd just rather learn to fix one than to buy another throw away.

Hey! You do the same large-icon style on the top of the taskbar! I thought I was the only one who did that. I started because I wanted someting that looked more like the Dock on OSX. Great desktop though, and nice specs
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah; been doing that for a number of years now and it was because of having a dock-like-look rather than wasting more ram on one of the various dock apps out there (like objectdock, y'z dock, mobydock, etc...).
