I’m not talking about any _big_ pc of any sorts, I’m just saying how on the chromebook, the desktop doesn’t let you display your apps on the homescreen. ---

This is my desktop. I know, it has the normal Windows 11 background. But I think it looks pretty clean! The right screen is my main screen, a TV, and the left is the screen of my laptop which is on a stand, which I use as a second screen. ![Screenshot (108)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/4/4fba8d3f059a63647ed82d05e45f0dadc749fdb8.jpeg) Also @Sarge what OS are you using? That clock widget is really nice. I don’t think Windows has done proper widgets (without 3rd party apps) since Windows 7. ---
