    What do you think of this windows XP desktop.

    It works for me and is very touch screen friendly so I just wanted to share it with everyone. The quick launch icons work better than the regulart desktop ones because you only have to click them once. But then again, I guess I could just change all the icons to only require one click. So what do you think of the look?

    I never heard any good things about it. I read up and heard that road noice is a big problem. I have 40 inch tires and an even louder exhaust. Combined with my stereo, it just would never work. I mostly just use FP anyway. But once in a while I use windows.

    Unlock the toolbars by right clicking on the toolbar, uncheck "Lock the Taskbar" Right click on the quicklaunch toolbar and then click view->large icons. When your done just lock the taskbar again. I have it setup like this on my desktop at home since everything is so damn small at 1600x1200.

    Control Panel > Display > Appearance Tab > Advanced button
    Select Active Title Bar in the Items list, then increase the size. By default it's 25.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?
