@starhawk
Sort of both. Not sure I can put in words.
Why use a beautiful wood surface 12 inches from your nose as a desktop
background?
What's wrong with using a nice photograph of a mountain scenery, or similar?
Why do you want to give to yourself the impression of a limited horizon, however
nice?

Looks nice to me... I like hardwood floors, though...
As the Romans themselves said -- de gustibus non disputandem est -- "In taste, there is no arguing"...
Note on grammar, per Wikipedia's article on the phrase, which is syntactically somewhat out of custom. Stylistically, Romans preferred to lump all their verbs at the end of the sentence, which they could do, as suffixes determined the structure of the sentence rather than word order. The upshot is that you can write "dog bites man" backwards and still mean the same thing the downside is that if you forget your pluperfect imperative verb conjugation (or, more famously, the ablative absolute structure -- "these things having been done by Caesar..."), you are grammatically screwed.
Source: my old Latin textbook, which Mom handed to me when I was somewhere around ten -- it's from Cambridge's course some decades ago; I want to say she got it for a high school course she took on the subject... I was composing pretty sizable stories --for a ten-year-old-- in Latin for about a year before I got bored with it. I might still have one or two of those somewhere, although my penmanship has always been questionable, at best.

It didn't quite look right to me, so I googled it and got:de gustibus non disputandem est
So I think 'um' is a more common spelling than 'em'. Great citation of yours, perfectly fit for this thread! Thanks.Showing results for de gustibus non disputandum est
Search instead for de gustibus non disputandem est

Whoops! That there is indeed a typo. My apologies... I'm incredibly rusty, haven't seriously touched the stuff in over a decade.
I really ought to fix that...

The wooden background

The wooden background is for when you are surfing wireless in the mountain with your laptop, musher0, to remember the home, sweet home.
You change the theme, the toucan changes of colour
To mix grey and colors, use tintii, section graphics. Enjoy Puppy !

Slim-6 with wmx-8 and a more traditional "Puppy desktop" layout.
The taskbar / traybar at the bottom is the wonderful bmpanel2.

I don't want to put any pressure on you (where's that tongue-in-cheek icon?!), but
Puppy was # 19 on DistroWatch today... (We were # 9 a year ago.)
The gods be with you, mandibule2005!

My supremely boring (and ultra crowded!) 'take' on 'Precise' 5.7.1, running on a P4-based, 2002/3 Dell Inspiron 1100 lappie, w/1 GB of RAM, and a 64 GB SSD.....

Mike, i like your dog (avatar)
Retroprecise 5.4.3 ToOppy was replaced by 5.7.1, as movies versions two are no longer surprising. Precise 5.7.1 dressed by Hungarian is nice too, and of course the Pupjibaros latinas de america del sur,
