Keith said a few postings ago, that it depends on the creation date of the
Desktop Folder to be 05/13/91 12AM or later. I checked mine today and
its creation date is something August 1992! But I still don't get the 
goodies.
I am glad that the engineers at Apple "waste" their time making these
cute little goodies. If they wouldn't how would *I* waste *my* time? ;-)

And, yes, we are supposed to have some fun here.
