Short: LinuxPPC desktop showing Myth2, AbiWord etc...

Here is a screenshot of my actual Linux X setup. As you can see,
the environment is the wonderful AfterStep, powered by the
latest 3.9.18 Permedia XFree86 driver. The machine I'm running
LinuxPPC is a 1200T with BlizzardPPC+ and BVision. In the shot
you can see:
-AfterStep environment, with Ostx style windows. I really love
Afterstep, it's nice to see, fast and cool, unlike all normal
window manager, imho too much Windows-ish.
-A quick GIMP session, with an opened image renedered in a few
clicks using the Supernova effect, a couple of lens flares, and
a nice dropshadow effect.
-The wonderful AbiWord program. This piece of software is great,
if you miss Word you really should give a try at this, has a
great support for .doc files. (www.abisource.com)
-The demo of the game Myth2, running in a X window. As the shot
shows, the graphic is really incredible, and runs in high res
(640x480 and more up to 1024x768) with software rendering. The
game features 16bit gfx, transparency effects, a great intro
and a excellent gameplay. If you have LinuxPPC, you should try
it! You can download the demo (60mb tar.gz archive) from one of
the Loki games mirror (like ftp.linuxgames.com).
