WebDesk (display a webpage on the desktop)

Just noticed Webdesk posted on freshmeat.net

I haven't tried it, but thought it looked interesting for those that miss Active Desktop. ;)

did any ever actually use active desktop?

<added by mdwatts>

No I didn't as I always disabled active desktop if and when I do use Windows.

Never heard about ".dmg files", how to you run apps with that extension?

Well, I put animated gifs on my backround. It was a bad idea, tho, slowed down the computer, and messed up other users. My dad still hates me for it :(

active desktop creates roughly another 30-45 seconds in your boot up time.... thats even on most high end systems

Since you have so much spare time, why not try WebDesk and let us know how it is and if worth installing? :)

Thanks a lot oubipaws.

Serz:
.dmg = disk image. Mac specific, you just dclick and it "mounts" a virtual drive.

Active Desktop? You mean active crap! That thing crashed more that a DC-10 :rolleyes:
