Question Do YOU want the Trash back on the Desktop?

Do you want the Trash Can back on the desktop, or is it better in the dock?

I don't want it on the desktop, it really doesn't belong there

I'm happy with it in the dock...I like having a completely empty desktop for some reason. I only keep temporary files about and get rid of those as quickly as I can...I guess I'm a bit of a neat freak ;-)

I'm like Izzy - keep the desktop neat and uncluttered.

I just keep one folder on the dock and put all my new files into it until I sort them out.

Hi!

I think it would be cool to have an options where you could decide to have the trash...in the Dock or on the Desktop .

What do you think?//Macfreak

I like it in the dock. With tinkertools I can pin the dock on the right side of the screen, so the trash is always at the same place (bottom-right corner). That way I don't need to know where I am dragging the items, I just hit the corner and viola!
