This is how my Mavericks desktop is currently looking on my new (to me) 2011 13" MacBook Pro.
It's hooked to my Thunderbolt Display so that's why the resolution is much higher
I like the fact the Porsche has a Swiss license plate. And the overtone.I like the purple overtone. Cool! 👍
Thanks, I think that the purple works really well with the black menu bar and the rainbow Apple logo. Just the perfect combination!I like the purple overtone. Cool! 👍
Too, I'm also a sucker for dusk and night-themed wallpaper.
Purple and black, along with blue & black, red & black and yellow/gold & black is always cool!Thanks, I think that the purple works really well with the black menu bar and the rainbow Apple logo. Just the perfect combination!
That’s just gorgeous. Can I have that wallpaper?Left display:
Not exactly sure which one you're asking for so…That’s just gorgeous. Can I have that wallpaper?
The one on the left screen, i.e. Cortana. Thanks a bunch! When I first saw it I thought of V.I.K.I. from "I, Robot".Not exactly sure which one you're asking for so…
Lots of Cortana out there, LOL - especially fan stuff.The one on the left screen, i.e. Cortana. Thanks a bunch! When I first saw it I thought of V.I.K.I. from "I, Robot".

Every display is now set and won't change for a very long time.
For those who don't know, from R to L, Audrey Meadows (I'm a Honeymooners fan), Amanda Blake (from Gunsmoke) and Kate Kennedy who plays Kai-125 in the HALO TV series. The blue woman on the right is 'The Weapon', also known as Cortana 2.0 - still voiced by Jen Taylor.
EDIT: @Amethyst1: So. That took 1 year, 2 months and 25 days. But yes, we're done…with this Mac.
That's cool!Rocking my white 2010 13" MacBook with Alissa White-Gluz from one of my favourite bands, Arch Enemy.

I just like the band. I'm from central Europe, Vienna, Austria. Actually the city of classical music, which I also like, mostly in the form of soundtracks. I listen to all kinds of music depending on my mood but in terms of live performances I think Metal concerts are the most fun. I've seen Arch Enemy a couple of days ago in Vienna. Great evening which got a wallpaper tribute.That's cool!
Are you Swedish (or Scandinavian) or just like the band?
I'm sixth gen Swedish-American…we've been here awhile.
Well, its primarily what I've been told. My mother at one point was doing some genealogy, but this was the late 80s when there was no internet and no companies advertising software and services on TV. So, I have no idea what she has (or had) and I'm pretty sure most of the details relate to her side of the family.It's awesome that you can track your lineage back that far, I basically know nothing beyond my grandparents.
I've been listening to Eldrim while working yesterday. Very nice, thanks!I did discover Eldrim though, which is a Swedish Viking music group.
except for the blood running in my veins and the occasional calling it gives me for certain Swedish things
Uhm, yeah…the food wasn't ever one of those things that called to me, except maybe Lingonberries.December lutefisk and lefse, don’tcha know!

When I was young (early to mid-1980s), my parents would take us to Griswolds (a long defunct smorgasbord restaurant) after church. I got double whammied because back then I never ate breakfast and other than juice or some bread nothing there appealed to me. It's only in the last year or so that breakfast food has started to be palatable to me.
Of course my father never went there for lunch or dinner because, you know, meat's way more expensive and he wasn't going to spend for three people and one carnivore (me).
Unfortunately, in my adult years I discovered that IKEA didn't have much to offer me either.
But hey, the coffee has always been good!
