No I suppose a tablet's not really a desktop, but I have that same wallpaper on one of my Windows 7 machines.

I don't mind the metro screen on Win 8, but the live tiles aren't always 'live' in the preview editions (if you see what I mean). For instance the weather one isn't showing your weather (unless you haven't set it up?).
Perhaps they'll sort it for the release proper?

Oh I'm fully using 8, and I love it already, and aye, the tiles are live

Glad to see this making a comeback, although I must admit my Ubuntu laptop and Vista Desktop haven't changed since February

I have just upgraded my phone though...

Aye, well I couldn't believe these threads stopped, they were immensely popular, and I thought it time to bring back an old but extremely interesting and entertaining tradition to DS

For you obviously not, but we'll soon see for others

And besides, if it's not interesting etc for you, why are you here..?

Has someone wound you up or something today? Every post of yours a really edgy.

Did you not notice i actually posted my desktop?

I was only replying to your post. You have obviously already forgotten that these threads hardly never got replied to hence the stopped getting started.

A lot of things are winding me up lately, which is the reason most of my posts, not just here are really edgy and blatant/blunt, I've become harder-skinned and 'sharp' lately, and unfortunately, you've stepped into my line of fire, today's been much tougher for me, and to add to it, I now have a stinking cold emerging, so, I overlooked that you had posted your desktop, but the way you came across was as if you were sort of mocking me and the thread subject in some way, hence my hardening edginess towards yourself, apoligies for overlooking that you'd posted your desktop, but also take into account my point
