    Son, I am disappoint.

    That said, I'm really resisting the urge to post this to Reddit and gain karma.

    Also, does your warranty cover?

    I don't think warranty's cover standing on the screen of your fucking laptop.

    If you buy an extended warranty, often times it does.

    If it doesn't. Lie.

    Not much changed since the last, except the new wallpaper (well, wallpapers -- it's on a slideshow thing. This is just my favorite of them). You should check out the artist's site, by the way, has some awesome stuff.

    I rather like the subtly changed Aero theme in mine. Also, note the lovely temperature outside.

    I like the way she stood, just staring at the light far away from her.

    Well, heres my desktop. The pic is one of several I shuffle around with, but its my favourite. So cool! A little messy at the moment, usually I have no icons except for the 5 on the left which organises everything. The rainmeter skin is a fairly standard clock and system info thingy. Not terribly creative, but it serves its purpose. Also, it sorta needs to be organised for my 15' laptop. Eh. Also, Vir, what is that skin you're using? It looks awesome as hell.

    Does Rainmeter use less resources than the default Gadgets of Windows 7?

    I remember using Rainmeter about 4 months ago on my Windows XP install, and it loaded so slow because of it. :(

    For me the difference was never really noticable. Rainmeter is a more flexible system that looks better, so for me its just better to use. It's never had any loading problems with me.

    You've got a few copies of the same thing on there. Three clocks that display the same times, two music displays. Seems a little unnecessary.

    Just sayin'. >_>
