Windows SDK coders do it without a .NET

Tsk tsk. I see the warning shield there, are you running with UAC disabled? 10 demerits for you!

While you're ooh-ing and ahh-ing over vista, a little nostalgia for your day:

Now if only I could somehow get a notification area... it's very fast like this...

Oh no, intruders! Call the security!!!

Oh well, somebody had to see my previous XP desktops before I upgraded to vista... Big Smile

Ok, ok, here comes the Vista desktop:

W-hat?

Where did those Vista Ultimate parts of the wallpaper come from? They appear to be the original Aurora Black. Also, mine:

Nice wallpaper, I was going to use that one at one point.

I wish I had Windows Vista (on a better computer), I will get it in the summer.

Don't have my vista box available now at work, but am I the only one that doesn't care about the gadgets or sidebar or whatever? I mostly work w/ the current window full screen and switch between active windows so I hardly ever see the desktop. AM I in the minority?

Maybe it's the image slideshow gadget undocked from the sidebar.

Notice to everyone else: when you post a screenshot, list the interesting stuff you have there, wallpaper, gadgets, utilities, so the rest of us don't have to ask for them every single time Smiley

Isn't that just the standard CPU/RAM gadget with a skin that is selectable from it's options? Looks like it at least Tongue Out

The CPU/RAM meter Sampy has is awesome though. I have that one at home too, it shows the CPU% of both cores if you have a dual core CPU. Quite nice.

Freshly installed; a weather gadget is a must-have in Seattle, so we know what sort of rain we're having.

Gadgets and the like you see in my screenshot:
TwentyFourClock
date V 6
Outlook Appointments
MultiMeter(D) 1.7
Slide Show
Weather (for Bellevue, WA and Virginia Beach, VA)
RSS Headlines
Uptime

The Slide Show on the desktop is a set of pictures from Jesse's Flickr page of him in sunglasses making faces. I thought it was funny so I pulled them down and put them in a gadget.

The wallpaper is from another Flickr source linked from 10. Lots of great stuff in there.

I have transparency turned up all the way and I've been testing a new "no maximize" way of working to see how I like it.
