Quote | In 3.x You can add and remove the desktop-Icons on your own .. just how You like it Isn't that possible in 4.0 | Yes, and some might say it's even easier since it now can be done with a drag and drop action.
It seems the question of the specific starting icons stems from a recent post that suggests the majority of non-expert computer users tend to limit their focus to whatever is available on the desktop. I won't argue with this claim because I agree with it. I've known many users who focus *all* of their computing on what is immediately visible on the desktop, save all files to the desktop, and have no knowledge of anything other than what can be seen on the desktop. Directory structure, PATH, and shell have no meaning to these users, and I wouldn't be surprised if many have never used a desktop ("start") menu.
