This Computer
Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This is simply an Computer icon for KDE, similar to Gnome's Computer.
It points Konqueror to devices:/.
To install:
Copy the shortcut file "This Computer" to your Desktop.
If you're not using the icon scheme "Crystal SVG 1.0" by Everaldo, you may also have to copy the file "mycomputer.png" to your icon folder ($HOME/.kde/share/icons).

KRec? Why not KRecorder or Rekord?
KAudioCreator? Why not KDE Audio Ripper or krip?
KSirTet?
The creative ones Some come from non-English words that I don't know what they mean - noatun and kopete!
O wait I know. It's noatun because "knows-a-ton" about causing segmentation faults!

It's a good work because users also want to access theire devices.
And perhapse they don't want to see a lot of icons on theire desktop !
It's a good work to group all devices in a simple icon / window.
BUT, I have one problem :
Why "*My* Computer" ??
It's a windows terme.
KDE do not append "My " in all it's paths...
Not "My home" but "Home.
Not "My documents" but "Documents".
Not "My images" but "Images"...
It's even worth for a computer : in a multi-user environment the computer is for all users : not only "Me". Think in a society or a university : the computers are not mines :-)
So GNOME is well : "Computer" : as easily. And it allow to browse folders with keyboard : if all files / folders begin with "My" it's a nighmare !
So, please rename to "Computer".
