Delphi Tokyo 10.2 Wallpaper

I’ve had a few requests for my Delphi Tokyo 10.2 wallpaper that I made. I found out that while this is a picture of Mt. Fuji in the background, this photo is from the Kyoto side, not the Tokyo side. I got the photo from Pixabay, which is a great free clip art site. They have many more Tokyo, Japan and Mt Fuji themed images if you want to make your own wallpaper.

Delphi Tokyo 10.2 WallpaperI purchased the sunglasses wearing spartan penguin from a different clipart site. The tattoo and scary eyes came from our internal creative team. I forget which one, but I’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of him. You can download my Photoshop file for this wallpaper if you want to tweak it.

Here is another collection of logos I put together for the T-Shirt contest. Pixabay also has pictures of speed, power, and success. I especially like this one:

Code Monkey Need BananaWhat terms do you use to describe Delphi, C++Builder, RAD Studio and the new 10.2 release? I’d love to see your wallpapers too!

Google Chrome OS

I read something a while ago where someone was speculating that Google might be planning to move their Android OS to Netbooks.  Well it looks like they had a different plan for Netbooks: Google Chrome OS.  Take their fairly robust browser and bolt Linux onto it, and you have an OS specifically designed to run web applications . . . . like Google Docs, GMail, etc.  And it can run on your Desktop too!

And thanks to Mono and Moonlight you can run Silverlight applications under it as well.
