This is such a Windows-person kind of solution. Come to think of it, I bet that this is why its so easy to change the wallpaper in Windows.


What would the Mac-person or Linux-person solution look like?


The linux solution would provide a new mechanism to configure sound.


Apple would issue a release saying "Don't do X. If you do X and it wipes your computer then obviously you are using your computer wrong".


... which wouldn't work properly until version 3.5 or so.


The Mac solution is that nobody installs an OS X upgrade until it's at the .1 release because everyone knows the .0 release breaks everything. You only install a beta if you're suicidal.


It's hard to change the wallpaper in OS X and Linux desktop environments?
