sorry, I was lazy to give direct links to the artists.

The best linux desktop I have seen in my life.

What background image is that robz0rz?

To be honest, I've been trying to find it again.. I would have sworn I got it off deviantArt as a daily deviation a while ago... You can see the name it is saved by, so it was probably packed in some sort of archive if it really is from dA, but I can't seen to find it anymore. I have the 1680x1050 version that I can send you if you want. If anyone else knows the original origin of that wallpaper, please drop me a message

I've hopped over to Arch :)

Still a long way to go with this, but coming together nicely.

Btw, if someone knows how I can get rid of those 3 desktop icons I'd be grateful ;) I'm sure there was an option in Xubuntu, but it seems to be missing for me.

I'll post a tar of the two configs, the scripts and the fonts when I get home.

I can't take credit for the sidebar config though, I got that config from Cookie on the archlinux forums here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=463704#p463704

I just made a few small modifications.

Xft.antialias: true
Xft.dpi:	   96
Xft.hinting:   full
Xft.hintstyle: hintslight
Xft.rgba:	  rgb

    • You pay just $100 per TB with this rare 4TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD deal by Sayan Sen SSDs and GPUs are incredibly hard to get nowadays due to high pricing. Discounts are quite rare which is why we report on them as soon as we spot a good deal. For example AMD's new 9070 GRE was finally up for sale at a very good price of just $500 thanks to a special coupon. Sadly that deal is gone but if you happen to be looking for a 4TB NVMe SSD and can spend around $400 there is a really good offer on sale that you should not miss out on as TeamGroup's 4TB G50 model is on sale for that that price which means you are only paying $100 per TB, a very good deal in the current market (purchase link under the specs table down below). The TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 drive and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. Since this is a 4TB drive you can use it for a gaming library to take advantage of things like DirectStorage. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. Get it at the link below: Team Group T-FORCE G50 4TB Internal SSD (TM8FFE004T0C129): $449.99 + $50 off w/ promo code SSF69668, limited offer => $39.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
    • Macbook Air is an appealing option, as are plethora of Windows devices with various different CPU's
