  2. Nice software. But I don’t think it’s worth $20.

  3. Been a whlie… but I can’t post in-depth analysis.
    I personally love these kinds of somewhat useless toys. If you don’t want to arrange your icons one by one or just have too much time on your hands to experiment with the computer… this thing’s for you.
    I don’t see how arranging icons is worth $20, but it’s a nice way to customize your desktop and have a bit of fun.
