Graphics, User Interfaces Stardock on Tuesday released the 2007 version of its popular Object Desktop suite of Windows customization utilities. The package of tools enables customers to completely change the way Windows looks and functions to suit their personal tastes. Included in Object Desktop 2007 are the latest iterations of WindowBlinds, IconPackager, DesktopX, WindowFX, RightClick, Keyboard LaunchPad and more. Enhanced File Dialog is a newcomer to the suite, providing a much more expansive Open and Save dialog window than that offered in Windows.

You mean video cards, takes at least two now to run a decent looking desktop with full effect and at least two cores to still have enough horsepower left to get something done behind it all.

Not if you're running Linux it doesn't. You can have all these cool effects, if you want them, working smoothly on a good old single core AMD XP 1,5 GHz CPU and a GeForce4 video card. And most of the work is done by the GPU so it leaves plenty of power for regular work.

We're obviously not running the same desktop here.
