Windows 7 Ferrari prototype theme available for download

Sleek, high-end cars have always been a favorite choice for desktop wallpapers. For those of you who happen to be running Windows 7 and love automotive sexiness, you've got to check out the Ferrari prototype themepack from WindowsZone (German).

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

Just because you prefer it that way doesn't mean everyone else in the entire world who uses Windows will.

How do you "To bad Microsoft?" That's one of the weirdest things I've ever heard of. Is that like framing them?

You can actually move it around on your screen.

I know that but some things dont operate the same way such as the orb plus when the start menu is at the top an does not fit in with the rest of the taskbar design it also takes more room than it would if the taskbar was at the bottom.
The better way would be to reverse the orb and clock/notifications so that the orb is at the bottom

I prefer my taskbar on the left side -- that way I don't by mistake click on close when I'm trying to open the start menu.
