Chris Pirillo of www.techtv.com says he doesn't like the way Linux looks. Chris, check out a modern Linux desktop here.
If you're looking for an excellent Linux distribution, checkout Knoppix 3.2 and use the included script that will copy it to your hard drive. Just boot from the CDROM to try it out without affecting your Windows OS if you have one installed.
A special thanks to all the Linux, GNU, and KDE developers around the world for their great works and for giving us a much better alternative to Microsoft and Apple.
man i hate that guy. such a pompous ass. alotta of the linux haters out there complain about how ugly linux is more than they complain about "application compatibility". i know several windows users who'll spend hours getting their windows OS configured and tweaked just how they like it and proudly show off their desktop screenies but when they load linux, they expect it to automagically look just as pretty as the windows desktop they spent hours on.
what the hell's up with that?
That's from the snowflakes that are falling down the screen when 'xsnow' is running. It would be cool if xsnow had an option so that the icons aren't disturbed.

anyone know what the link or name of the wallpaper on the first image is? my favourite screenshot was the first one - XINE looks so totally analog!
the desktop icons on the 3rd shot? they are looking damaged...
