estoyloco - maybe hobart doesn't have a mac, and dreams of one. 
Great mod work though - if i were you i'd get rid of the shortcut arrows for a start.

indeed, there is no XP for the PowerPC CPU (at least, not available to the public) so he cannot be running XP on his Mac. my guess, too, is that the poor man is Mac-less!!

Click on your desktop to activate the finder, goto View -> Show View Options (Command + J) and check the box labeled "Show item info"

fyi: that image file was too large to upload.
Try compressing it a little with preview's "export" feature. (File>Export>Jpeg...)

Heya,
There's an even easier way to do this -- install 'QuickImage' from Pixture Studio (it's free). Allows you to do a simple right click on the image in the finder to change the format, compress the image and lots of other things. I've been using it for a while now -- it works pretty well.
Cheers -- Darren.
