My desktop just has aliases to my most used tasks including Mail,
Safari etc and I admit to hardly ever using the doc, it was much the
same when I used Windows, I used the Desktop but never the start menu
much, I think of the Doc in Tiger as much the same as the Start menu
on Windows XP.

Interesting. I've never had any problems with VO reading the desktop
whatsoever. I use it primarily for keeping files that I'm using and
actively working on, and then file them away when I'm done with them
for a while. There are rarely more than two or three items on there
at a time, and I keep it very tidy as well.

I hate using the desktop because for some reason VO doesn't behave
properly when reading through the files and folders there, so I
keep my desktop very tidy with an alias to my documents folder and
the drive iCon and that's it.

Hi Anne,

Hello James,
I use my Desktop for temporary files and folders that I intend to
file correctly later or throw away. The Mac way of doing things
is to keep the Desktop tidy.
Cheers,
Anne

Hi folks,
what is the difference between putting applications that aren't
running on the doc as opposed to making aliases and putting them
on the desktop? What I am asking really is, if we have a doc
anyway that lists all our applications that we use a good deal
like safari, XNNTP in my case, etc, etc, why have a desktop as
well?
Best
