Is it just me or would anyone else like it if the next revision of OS X gave the trash back to the desktop or is everyone really that happy with the trash in the Dashboard?
 
i like it in the dock. its always right there when you need it and doesnt get in the way. however i guess they could give the option to remove it from the dock and put it on the desktop
 
i like it better in the dock, i often have too many windows open that would be covering the desktop trash. then again, i dont hide the dashboard.
 
When I first moved to OS X from OS 9, the fact that the Trash wasn't on the Desktop really bugged me. Now, I couldn't imagine it anywhere else than in my Dock.

Of course, in the good old days us UKers had it called the 'Wastebasket' rather than the more Americanised 'Trash', but that's a conversation for another thread... 😛 😉
 
I like it where it is. 🙂

Just spotlight the folder .Trash, and dra it to the desktop.


Not sure if this is a joke, but for the people about to do this, don't. 😱

Thank you for the kind offer, but I'll think you find it takes a bit more than that to part a Yorkshireman from his money. 😉
