Well, I was hoping we had an expert out there who has downloaded/created some 
neat themes. 

As far as the bling-bling, I am caught somewhere between a Mac and Linux user. 
I want power with good looks! LOL.

So what is the topic for the 18th then? I have a guy in my office that would 
like to attend a meeting. Did you give any thought to loading Mandrake on my 
G3? I am sure it would be easy to do, but I have never seen Linux on a Mac.

Interested in feedback,,
