I have no idea what I think of it, since I lack the background to judge the information well.

The guy I took it from gets an insane amount of compliments on it weekly, apparently.

Agreed, SO much icon love! I'm not even a firefox user and I love it ;0)

That icon is lovely. ^_^

And once again I'm distracted by minor details...

My GAWD, I LOVE that icon! :D

[noodles-morgyn.livejournal.com]

I'll just echo everyone else and say, that icon is AWESOME.

Um, yeah. That icon is awesome. I need to get myself a Tux icon.

I can definitely imagine Microsoft collapsing - it's already on the decline. Back when I first installed Linux (it was some very old SUSE distro) I would never have thought it would make a user-friendly(!) alternative to Windows. But the recent developments... I'm amazed. I have just bought a notebook with lost of relatively new custom hardware, and everything ran perfectly at first try with a Debian-based distro. I never got that with windows - one or two pieces or hardware invariably ended up conflicting, or inproperly recognized. Over the next few weeks (I need time to back everything up before I format my hard drives) I'm planning on going completely Linux. VMWare runs my Photoshop just fine, if it runs my special sound apps too, it'll be bye bye windows, because the rest (including the games I want to play, to my astonishment - there is all sorts of console emulation on Linux too, and there is a native version of SMACX!!) of what I use runs just as fine under Linux.

There is an interesting article on Dreamworks using Photoshop under Linux with Windows emulation by VMWare... now if only VMWare were free. I have yet to try wine (another Windows emulator, but built on different mechanismsm), but I have already used VMWare for a month and it was just fine for my Windows needs.

ICON LOVE.

Is it bad that I began using Firefox for the sole reason of having yet another little foxie on my desktop? <3333 foxes.
