So, I wanted to make a desktop thread because I just switched to Linux
and felt like showing off my new (kinda plain) desktop. Mainly
wanted to show off my new OS . I
just got tired of all the viruses and crap going along with
Windows. I also got a program that fools programs into thinking I
am running windows, so I can use any windows program on Linux (except
