I've got to admit, having had it for while, I've now started turning off my sidebar.

Additionally, I tried the Dreamscenes, and whilst they are bloody cool (especially if you load in something like, oooh, me sliding round VMax) they distract me rather.

I've gone back to a simple nice picture and simple desktop.

Most productive setup for me anyhow.

I just use the analogue clock on mine. I do find it frustrating that I can't find a way of having my programmes shortcut bar down the right hand side of the desktop like I can in XP......unless of course someone knows how to do that in Vista.

If you turn the sidebar off you can drag the tool bar over smile
