1. You've got some fucking weird icons in your dock.
I've just got a blue background on my Mac Mini.

I've got an eclipse shot (I took) on my laptop, but I don't know how to post pictures.

2. Which ones?
:evilgrin:

Office for Mac, the Intego antispam and firewall suite, surely not the Adobe apps, the Amiga emulator, or the Logitech keyboard profiler app? :D

Hitting Command-shift-3 takes screengrabs -- these are deposited directly on your desktop. At native resolution. Given mine's 1920x1200, I shrank it before uploading... :D

www.photobucket.com can host pics that you can upload to them...

(GREAT front-end for E-UAE)
http://www.rcdrummond.net/uae/
(E-UAE)

http://www.amigaforever.com/
(includes tons of games, Demos, and legal ROMs if you don't already have your own. Also includes OS X runtime utils, the links I'd already mentioned.)

11. I had both of them
I was beside myself when I got my 100Meg SCSI HD for the 2000. Now putting another 1Tb drive in my Mac doesn't quite give the same satisfaction as that first drive ever did.

12. I don't even have a hard disk for the 2000 anymore.
It still boots off a floppy.

The 500 has a 20GB sidekick drive with 2MB of memory (bringing it up to a whopping 3MB, which is more than enough).

My absolute favorite game is Globulus. I hope you have it.

4. Can't post the actual desktop (which is utterly iconless, anyhow)
But here's the pic on the desktop. A windfarm in Kimball, NE.

27. you should have a custom icon for your hard drive(s)
Show the world that you're not a mac n00b!


As fortune--and lack of imagination on my part--would have it, this is what I have for my wallpaper on my windows box right now. But it was on my mac long ago.
I'm a simple fella.
