And I'll add that it drove me nuts to see random, popcorn-like activity amongst the tiles.

I kept trying to find "control panel" to add a second monitor, for example, but one of those tiles spontaneously showed me a video of an fscking carnival in Rio!

Then, another flashed a bikini babe in Miami.

Then, another flashed a severe weather warning on another continent...

It was like being in the control room of a news station! Pretty like a Christmas tree or fireworks, but *first I have to help my girlfriend set up her computer to write her dissertation."

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, but sometimes you don't want a thousand, you only want one or two.
