almost the same story here but with Warp 4. i still miss some of the random
features.. being able to drag and drop random things like "wouldn't it be cool if you could just do this.." and then being blown away when it works
like you imagined.. all my folders had custom backgrounds and icons (nicked a
bunch from BeOS lol)

ah the good old days. i should see if i can decorate my KDE setup a little
bit. bring back some of that comfy feeling.
