Switch to NetBeans :)

Personally I find the desktop behaves exactly how I want-- a place to  
put stuff I'm currently focused on (be that stuff I've just  
downloaded to check out, or a document I'm working on), which I file  
away to its rightful place when I'm done with it.  Consequently,  
there's rarely more than half a dozen icons on my desktop.  I think I  
have a touch of OCD when it comes to tidiness in real life anyway,  
though :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
