cantubury at your service within the eye of the storm is the calm. all chaos, when viewed at nano-levels are beautiful patterns, reproduced again and again. Entropy only lasts until its time to reweave realitys

Re image #2: "Some images look like they were pulled from a computer with SERIOUS problems..."

Actually, this image looks almost exactly like Norton Utilities' disk defragmentation sequence...at least on the Mac side (wouldn't know about Windows).

Doesn't seem exactly right...I don't think there are any smears or diagonal runs of color in Norton as you see occasionally in this image. But it's very close to it...so this would actually be an illustration of a computer putting its "serious problems" right!
