The hard-drive with my Fedora 14 system has developed a mechanical fault (don't worry, all of my important data is safe!), so I am back on my Fedora 13 system again. I am going to to spruce it up a bit before giving a screenshot though.

Since it has been awhile since we have done this, here is a screenshot of my Fedora 13 system as of today.

Will have to wait until I can get that mess with SeaGate resolved so I can get my new hard drive before I can upgrade unfortunately. Probably will end up installing Fedora 16 by then.

Not often I see someone with more game icons on there desktop than mine Xpander, although I do own a lot of what you show (as would anyone with most of the Humble Bundles). Still, I will see if I can beat you when I get my problems with my new 2TB sorted out and I set up my Fedora 16 system. :p

Note I said Fedora 16, which is not available until November. I still need to get my refund for those defective drives SeaGate kept sending me. I had already had a fully upgraded Fedora 15 install on one of them before it went nuts. :confused:

The only problem I currently have with unity is how to edit menu entries, as with gnome you just use alacarte, someone on ubuntu forum tried to explain how to edit unity items but it seemed very long winded and not worth the bother :(
