That's if the scurvy don't get you first!

My iMac's desktop (the dragonfly is trapped in the fingers of the MBP) is boring and regular. Sleepy, huh? I got a ton of menulets: Adium, Optimal Layout, TunesArt, Dropbox, Squeeze, DwellClick and the system.

That's DwellClick. It's a thing that clicks your mouse for you. I'm beta-testing it on macdeveloper.net

So yeah. Turned my MBP into a desktop computer pretty much.

Commented…

The MBP's damsel-in-distress was getting boring, so I replaced it with a shot of Chutes-Coulonge, QC, that I took this summer. Nice place.

Do we have any desktop-accessory, menulet or dock freaks here? I'd like to see them step up. In the lower corner is TunesArt), on the right DwellClick, up there GeekTool running date every second. Then there's my menulets: Optimal Layout, TunesArt, Dropbox, GeekTool, Squeeze(r), NuKit, DwellClick. And the rest is system, as they say. Or don't.

Not a desktop, but still. Figured I'd have some fun on my new computer.

Wow, history lessons. Goes back, but not as far as my '89 Camry.

Has anyone tried a nice 512x512 Apple-made icon, on a white bg?

Foolish!

Just a side question, does a PPC iMac running Leopard support Classic? My friend bought a PPC machine without asking me about it. So now I'd like to see if he can run Classic apps.

All PPC Macs support classic in 10.4. 10.5 eliminated Classic.

Flickr is just for photos, it seems.

Anyone got some nice cars?

For some reason iPhoto/Flickr won't show my latest, a Lamborghini at Montréal Car Show (2008).
