Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu - I used Linux ~15 years ago when it was in its infancy, but have not really used it since.  I love the look of this desktop - is it something you have put together yourself, or is it possible to download the various components (e.g. the icon toolbar at the bottom, the calendar, the weather forecast, etc.)?I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 straight of the x86 install CD on a Dell Latitude C610 laptop, so the graphics capabilities are limited, but if this goes well I'll be converting my AMD64 desktop aswell - any pointers on customising the desktop would be really appreciated.Thanks!

Hi,    I only answer now because I was in my wedding trip till yesterday.   The version of my linux is the 8.04 Lts.  Hardy Heron,     My dock is the cairo-dock ( http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/05/01/how-to-install-cairo-dock/ )   Screenlets (http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Home ) are easy to be installed, as suggested on the site.    The meteo is a gdesklet (http://directory.fsf.org/project/goodweather/ ) called goodweather,   In the end...  for the Desktop image.. I don't remember anymore where I downloaded it, but if you give me an e-mail address I can send it directly to you.
