The intakes are the easiest way to tell. At least I think so.

Re: The new Post Your Desktop thread

The Super Hornet is easily one of the best fighters on earth. I'd put one of her up against a current Russian Flanker or Fulcrum any day of the week.

I agree. It's a very under-appreciated aircraft. And the Growler is just badass.

I just prefer the way the classic [C] looks. The bigger intakes as I mentioned and the angler LEX just make it look a bit more boxy and less elegant.

That's Talking Heads' David Byrne at left, holding the trumpet, and Annie Clark of St. Vincent at center with the guitar.

Heh, T'Preea, that's awesome. Where did you find it? Or did you make it? Love him in the old-fashioned navy outfit. Maybe I'll have to make my own background out of some shots from that scene.

I've thought about using an LCARS display for my own wallpaper but the one I'd really like is a TOS-style "blinky light" wallpaper replicating the classic bridge indicator screens.
