You can change the colour back to blue if you want, IIRC it is the same setting as can change XP to red...

Useful...

So a bunch of coders and a project manager got together in a meeting to decide that blue was out and red was in. No wonder it took 5 years to get out the door.

Although I did hear that most of the delays were caused by senior-middle management getting involved in and micromanaging every decision. Sounds like my job.

How do you change it to red and vice versa?

Thats fantastic.

All I need to do now is sit here and wait for my PC to crash.

I have various PC's running Windows 2000, XP etc.

They run 24/7

None of them have crashed for at least 2 years, one of them has been running for more like 4 years.

If you get BSOD it is usually a hardware fault (cheap ram, faulty PCI card, etc). That would even crash Linux.

So much bulltulip and bigotry on here.

If Windows is so bad, how many clients have you worked at where they had Linux on all the desktops? How many?
