My 2003 Windows XP/Linux dual build that acted as the main work/play PC tower has been written off since the first MacBook. Fortunately, I managed to salvage and upgrade her, and she's now a part [of my retro office desk setup](/post/2024/03/my-retro-desktop-setup/). When I reinstalled everything a few years ago on the Core2Duo 32-bit machine, I admittedly picked Ubuntu as a dual boot option out of laziness. It's running a boring default Gnome desktop instead of a cool custom Fvwm theme like the ones [I did in 2004](/post/2020/11/desktop-screenshots-of-olde/) when time was still a commodity. I should at least switch to Xfce, just to make a statement.
I rarely use my retro computers because they're locked inside my home office. I don't want to bake our daughter in the evenings and just take the laptop downstairs when a blog post such as this one needs to be written. These 13" MacBook Airs are so damn portable, it's unfair. Why would I want to build yet another tower? Besides, I really don't have any space left and I'd rather keep the quirky Win98 Athlon PC that constantly crashes just because it has Windows Plus Themes installed.

Speaking of cool themes, [my Desktop is dull thanks to macOS](/post/2022/10/my-desktop-is-dull-thanks-to-macos/). I didn't even bother to change the stupid default background on my work MacBook.
