Real life doesn't fit into orthogonal containers. Clutter represents uncertainty, mankind's greatest fear. Learn to accept it, appreciate it, love it!

After this post I set it to auto-hide though, which works much better (by the way it's the resource-light Y'z Dock not ObjectDock). I like having my calender on the desktop because I have to go out for events regularly and I like having the reminders there. Plus it integrates nicely with the GTD method of having only time-sensitive tasks in the calender. I like having the date on the clock! I know it adds to the clutter but it's just me - it reminds me of a Mac :p Hi qeek,

A few months ago, I've used the very same Windows theme with ObjectDock at the bottom. Anyway I think your desktop could be simplified even more. - Is ObjectDock really necessary? You can use the Start menu. - Use online calendar (like GCal) instead of Rainlendar, and open it only when needed - Hide all tray icons - Don't display the date next to the clock :) Funny.
