Reasons Windows is better then Linux? Well for one thing, on Windows I can actually install programs. I have yet to have on simple program install on Linux. And 2, Windows can actually use my sound card. >_> Beyond that, not much else.

No offence Spongey, but it didn't take too long to figure that out, but some could be real

I know, but Skyone didn't seem to realize that.

On a side note, how do you get icons next to the text (like Marshallh had in his uh... 'computer')

No, I mean really. And I know it doesn't involve alt-w or alt-f4 or something of that sort.

Press F10 for god mode!
But really, I thinks there's probably some bitmap or whatever in the WINDOWS directory (or its sub-directories). Marshallh's was Photochopped anyway I suspect...

1. All the screenshots are either from a website that was trying to find the slowest possible XP machine or were doctored.
2. That's the system load meter. Open the Task Manager (ctrl+alt+del or right-click empty taskbar space and select it from the menu) and it will appear in the system clock area.
