Netbooks seem to be a popular topic in the BITOG computer forum lately, so I thought I would post a desktop screenshot from my new Acer Aspire One. This little netbook is running Windows XP, and I've got the desktop set up in Mac OS X wannabe mode.

I get almost 3 hours of web surfing, email, pic viewing. I've found 6 and 9 cell replacement batteries, but I doubt I'll buy one.

My wife's Acer does the same. The 6 cell is a NICE option!

Thanks. The dock at the top of the screen is Rocketdock. I love it and have it installed on all my Windows PCs. It works almost identically to the way the dock on a Mac works.

TNS, thanks for letting me know about the Royal Noir theme. I installed it, and it looks great.

I also use the MS zune theme sometimes - it's also a black theme, but adds a bit more color to some frames - here are 2 screen shots with my RocketDock and current background:
I like!
