Might do...never been there so I can't compare. 'Tis definitely the Musikverein...see the statues at the side? Must admit photo is not v. good but when the opportunity presents itself you have to make use of the little technology you have to hand to capture the moment.

I've never been bothered to 'do-up' my desktop, because relatively speaking you spend little of your time on the computer looking at it. I like adding extensions (mostly pointless ones) to Firefox though.

It's a distribution of Linux - an open source operating system. And the GUI he's running is KDE (just to throw in some TLAs for the sake of it)

The Philharmonic Hall just has intriguing sketches of naked women on the walls. One of them seems to be holding a plate on her head, and checking how she looks in another plate...

OK, have the desktop on-screen and then press 'print screen' - it's a key usually at the top right of the keyboard. Might be shortened to Prt Scr.
Then, go to MS Paint, then select Edit > Paste.
The picture of your desktop should appear on screen.
Then save the image.
Then go to www.imageshack.us and upload.
Then copy the link into the reply window
