Pretty cool, huh? Yes, I just found it last night. Actually, I intended to find the same background for Windows 2000 Pro. But, I found the 98SE version too. You get the background from http://mhtools.knoware.nl/raptor/wallpapers.html. And you have versions from Windows 95 to Windows Longhorn. Take your pick. :)

And on another note,

Windows XP Professional SP2:

Santa's Happy Pause

Postby FrankoSport » Wed 29 Dec, 2004 1:24 am

Greetings ...

Since we are in the (belated) Christmas Holiday Season, I offer "Santa's Happy Pause" --

Image

The Santa image was scanned from a Coke cardboard can container. Here's a link to that image.

Thanx-A-Lot and Happy Holidays from Frank-0-Sport

Dream WorkRoom

Greetings ...

On my home computer. Image came from a real estate listing. I'll tell you right off that the shot is a lot neater-looking than the "jungle" in which my home PC actually resides - a real mess! proof I'm a real computer nerd.

Nice picture. Sorry, I am a bit lost in your sentence, is picture of your room (when cleaned up)?

The image is SOME ONE ELSE's place - don't know who, but it's not mine!

I wish it were mine!

How come you are using Firefox when you said something like this:
"I hate Firefox, it's crappy and slow, I USE IE!"
