Post your desktop - pic

Here's mine. Don't think I can ever go back to a single screen for my main pc <3



EDIT: Oh dear, I may have just raped the thread size. sorry >.<

 

I've resized your image to make it a little easier on people using lower resolutions.

I use two screen for my PC being a 40" Toshiba Regza and a 24" Acer HD monitor. The Acer is the main while the Toshiba is used for watching movies or TV programs from the PC on the big screen. Apart from that I don't really have any use for two screens as far as daily use goes. 1 wide screen suits me just fine. Now one 4:3 screen, that's a squeeze.

I just love having like browsing or minecraft on one screen and itunes on the other. plus, one screen was cheap so what choice did I have? XD

 

I have a pretty similar situation with my 22" ASUS PC monitor and my 32" LG TV. They both have the same native resolution (1920x1080), so I have my computer set to duplicate the desktop on both screens. It's simpler and easier than having to drag videos and such onto another screen.

 

Just reinstalled debian...

 

Xubuntu <3

 

I'll have to give it a try, it was a long time since the last time I tried Xfce, but I had enough with the default Unity desktop and Gnome-Shell. They look nice, but they're a real pain in the ass to use if you need to get some serious work done with them or you need a lot of apps open at the same time.

I'm using Ubuntu at work since about a year ago, and with the 11.10 update, the classic GNOME desktop stopped being an option to use daily (the GTK3 port bundled with Ubuntu Oneiric gave me lots of troubles and crashed constantly), so currently I'm trying some other desktop environments at home to see which one is better.

Currently I'm trying KDE, it's been a long while since the last time I tried it and it has improved a lot, but I still have to try Xfce since from what I've seen it looks more like what I'm looking for.

Anyway, here's my current Ubuntu desktop with KDE:

 

If you're after lightness, go for Lubuntu. It uses LXDE.

if you're after functionality, you probably want GNOME 3 or s/t

 

z_killemall, did that exam of yours go well?

 

I'm not looking for somwthing lightweight, I'm looking for something comfortable to work with. GNOME 2 works just fine for me because keeps everything easy to see and ordered. Modern interfaces tend to hide everything all the time in order to give you more screen space and give you a separate interface to handle all that stuff, it looks awesome but no matter how much I tried to get used to it, I still find it annoying to use.

Some days ago I've heard about a project called Mate, which attempts to keep the GNOME 2 desktop alive and up to date (probably migrating it to GTK3). It doesn't look stable enough but maybe I'll give it a try in some months

I just found the open PDF in that screenshot XD

I have it next saturday, I hope I can approve it, I've been doing lots of old exams during the last weeks (BTW, programming in MODULA-2 sucks sooooo much:dammit...

 

Trying out 10.8 like it so far.

 

Ah, version fakers. gotta love 'em.

 

No developers with a seed of the first build is the correct answer. Lol.

Mountain Lion is all over the tech news and I do Mac and iOS programming for a living.
