It seems like no matter what I put on my desktop, I always come back to putting something from Star Trek back on my PC... Microsoft Windows 10 Pro. Linux Mint 20 Yes I am going to keep this computer at Windows 10, because it is a Duel Boot system, Windows 11 almost makes it impossible to do otherwise!!! My love of Star Trek drives my Girlfriend crazy. Hope no one else has that problem...lol

Very nice! I have WOK Enterprise as my phone wallpaper. My laptop (currently running Linux Zorin*) wallpaper is a Piper PA-17 Vagabond. My wife actually likes Star Trek, but only TNG and DS9. She liked ENT more than I did, but I have always preferred TOS/TMP era. She also likes that her personal ring tone is the TNG theme (it's actually the TMP theme... but I'm not gonna ruin it for her).
* I was running Mint until I got a notification that my version of Mint was no longer being supported. Since I had to do a install anyway, I decided to try something new. ZORIN light is "okay". I may upgrade to ZORIN standard... but I have to be careful, the Laptop came with XP, so it does not have a lot of processing power. At this point I'm just curios as to how long it will last. My last Notebook (actually a netbook) went through two keyboards, two batteries, and five or six OS's - it was fun).

I am running Mint 20, and well it will do an inplace update now to the next version...I am glad they went that route of things. My Rebecca will only watch TOS with me. She can't stand the rest of the franchise. She had a crush on "Bones" when se was younger..lol She got me a couple of TOS tshirts...last year for Christmas ...and she got me a Connie for my desk...She tolerates my Star Trek fixes...lol

I put Mint back on the Laptop. It's just a more complete (and more familiar) distro. I don't really have a lot of Star Trek stuff... I have a TNG Wallet, and my wife has the ToS Bridge Crew Barbie set (far cooler than it sounds).
I have a TOS blanket on my side of the bed (nice shot of the Enterprise), the wife-unit has Hello Kitty on her side. We were hopeful that the kids would be Hello Trekkies, but they are just tablet addicts...

I'll do you one better. I always have a Star Trek ship on my desktop background. I've had the Reliant on my desktop for years now. Maybe I should change it to something else. Updated my desktop!
