Whose Desktop Would You Most Like To See?
An anonymous reader writes "Have you ever been curious about what someone else's computing environment looks like? Would you like to see what tools and products someone like Linus Torvalds, Bill Gates, George Bush, or Steve Jobs uses on a daily basis? What percentage of time is spent browsing the web, working in spreadsheets, programming, debugging, designing, or writing documents? How many monitors or devices do they have attached to their PC? What kind of security or anonymizers do they have in place?" For good or ill, open source developers' desktops at least are often visible in screenshots of their pet projects.

Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
the desktop sees YOU!
"They have lots of people doing "stuff" for them."
Yeah like in George Pube^H^H^H^HBush's case, sending other peoples children to *die* for his sense of self esteem?
In the free world the media isn't government run; the government is media run.
Its going to be so awesome when Bush wins the election and you shits have to eat it for another 4 years. And thank God too, I don't think America can afford to stick a demoncrat in the White House yet. Maybe when things are going well again, but it could really do a lot of damage right now. Its taken a lot of work for Bush to get things straightened out, but there is still a ways for him to go.
OK, sorry about that, here's the real RMS desktop: pic
We have known about Bush's desktop for a long time.
Here it is in action..

Natural Selection: self-destruction of the poor and lazy
What the fuck man... what an elitist prick, RMS that is. Is he that in love with his beloved EMACS that he is "too cool" to use a window system? Jesus Christ, get with the times RMS. I can understand using something other than Windows, but to NOT use a Window System at all, it just seems like he is maybe too afraid to advance to the window age. Obviously, the window system is accepted by the masses and it has its advantages over the old text mode system. Get with the times RMS. And if anyone sees him tell him to fuck off.
WTF does he need a newspaper for?
They're only interpreting what he's doing to make the liberal editors feel important.
It's not like the NY Times reports the fucking truth.
They just make shit up so niggers can feel like they participate.
Citing Michael Moore just shows your a fucking liberal college kid, living off mommy and daddy, thinking you know something for that one course you took in Poly Sci.
Get your head out of your ass and get a job you fucking hippy.
It almost reminds me a little bit of the furour surrounding the Pope and Mel Gibson's film. On one level, the Pope is a guy watching a movie, and he probably said something after he saw it.
Are you sure the Pope can comprehend anything these days? All he seems to do is drool like an idiot and stare into the middle distance.
He's an evil man, and I for one will be celebrating his death.
deus does not exist but if he does
i've never seen such a level of stupidity displayed everywhere. and i thought geeks were smart!
Wilson Election #1: "We can't get into the war! It's none of our business!"
Wilson Election #2: "We have to get into the war! We have to help Europe!"
Typical liberal flip-flop bullshit.
FDR let (yes, he knew beforehand) the Japanese bomb Perl Harbor in order to start up the American war machine and end the depression.
Truman started the damned Korean War.
Kennedy started the Vietnam War.
Johnson fucked up the Vietnam War and turned it into the quagmire it became by refusing to win the damned thing and using it as a form of population control and economic stimulant.
Clinton was a slimy son-bitch who destroyed the economy (it was dying before he left office, and it takes a year for a new administration's policies to have visible effect) and sold nuclear secrets to China.
Creating the UN isn't something in which one should take pride since it's a worthless and irrelevant piece of shit.
Social Security and Medicare are drains on working Americans and huge wastes of money. You put your money in and you get the same amount back when you retire. The problem with this is, you fucking lose it all due to inflation. But the government knows better how to handle my money than I do since I get a 5-10% return on my IRA. If the government would start a program to teach people to invest, social security and medicare would be unnecessary, but it's a government-sponsored puramid scheme. If we setup a working system now, the government would have to come up with some money to pay current benefits since they squandered it all.
It's pretty obvious that you aren't in touch with reality, but I wouldn't go around admitting that you don't understand how 95% of the world uses their computer.
What are you, 12 years old? Omg, windoze lolerz. I use teh Linsux, i am teh gehnius.
" Sure, but he had a C average"
What was your average at Harvard?
