It's the image that flashes when a non-active window is trying to get your attention. An example would perhaps be an open MSN window in the background. If you received a message, the taskbar button will flash to alert you to it. Windows alternates the images between the normal state and the flashing one.

A seperate card is always the way to go for serious graphics use. For regular use, such as surfing, e-mail and maybe office software, an on-board will do fine. When it comes to gaming and similar, a seperate card will have it's own onboard memory and GPU, which takes the load off the motherboard, meaning it doesn't have to overwork itself and cost you performance as a side-effect.

As long as there are new trends for people to cash in on to reap those oh so precious 'awesome skin d00d' comments, then this crap will continue to get rammed down our throats. On the flip side, once VistaHorn is released and the fever dies down, people can go back to porting Msstyles and making logons from other peoples wallpapers.....

True. For example the io WindowBlinds skin (part of a paysuite)Link is a combination of a rather "generic" plastic and the Metal Navbar 1 Photoshop tutorial by theWebMachine Link. It´s a good looking skin, i actually really like Hippy´s semi-cartoonic style. It is not that impressive though, everyone (including me) can follow a tutorial </
