So nicely put Stephen.... I couldn't have said it better myself!

When I found out about Stardock and ObjectDesktop and all the rest (about one month ago) it only took about 2 minutes on the WC message boards to be hooked. I'm supposed to be looking for a J.O.B. and instead I'm spending all my time here on the message boards and looking at all of the great skins that are available.

This week I was finally able to buy the four items that Essencay listed above (had to come up with the money). My computer and I are never going to be the same again!!!
