This PC has 2 functions: it's mainly my Linux server, but sometimes is used as my Windows Vista box.

I just thought as 2008 draws to a close, I'd take a quick look through my Program Files folder and see what apps I'm using this year. Aside from the odd game on Steam, these are the applications I use for a few things - some may be semi work related for when I'm working from home, but it gives a fairly broad look.

All I can say is that these are all real - none of them are Photoshopped. In fact, if you're [un]lucky you may be able to repeat them. They're just run of the mill examples of the fact that maybe sometimes UI designers, programmers, and who knows who else, maybe want to throw us something a little different.

Here we are again - I'm still a techie kind of guy. I still live in Tokyo. Nothing changed there.
