Default Show off your desktop!

This is really pretty dumb but if you're willing I thought it would be kind of cool to attach a file/link with a screenshot of your desktop to show off your snazzy background, programs, etc.

My Computer

You won't enjoy mine, i have the original XP background, no icons on my desktop except My Computers / My Documents & the defaults, all my menu is layed out very boringly organised, and i have nothing booting in the Startup except my Firewall / Anti-Virus.

:p

CLEAN PC!

No I don't want SP2. I could but its doing ok. Also when I want to do a repair install (when the time come) I can't do it without an SP2 slipstreamed disc if I ahve it installed. So with SP1 I can do repairs easy.

That's pretty weird, I've got the exact same one and mine works fine. It's pretty cool but not like in the movies so don't feel too bummed.
Thanks everyone, you've got some pretty cool ones out there, too bad the text isn't readable on any of these. Oh well. For the record I have no idea why I've got a beaver dancing with a naultilis, it seemed like a good idea at the time I guess.
