All these types seem to be rather trivial. We would certainly like to have more complex…
- Active Desktop 1.043, No More Desktop — Do you really love that boring Windows «desktop» concept? I personally don?t. Even if I could believe there were desktops in size of a stool, I still wouldn?t believe that a handful of icons are the only things I could place on my desktop.

So, if you think seriously…

The common solution is all kinds of the «take-a-break» software, but they are often irritating and…
- Aston, Throw Away Your Old Desktop! — No matter how hard you strive to improve your Windows desktop trying to make it more fancy looking, changing its coloring and fonts, wallpaper and even the shape of icons, it will still remain just a dumb rectangular space with tiny pictures, which can hardly be turned into something really useful.

- Advanced Host Monitor – keep your fingers on the pulse of your network — Being a system administrator is somewhat similar to being a doctor — servers and websites can go down unexpectedly and at any moment and you can be woken up at night by an emergency.
