Tribz put all game shortcuts into folder then move said folder into one of your HDD's away from sight. Then right click taskbar --> Toolbars --> "New ToolBar" --> Navigate to Games folder and voila now all your game shortcuts will be in a list like the quick launch area.

Did you really expect anyone to notice the Sims amidst all the chaos on your desktop? (I am assuming it's there; I never looked.) How do you find anything there?

This may have been posted before, but for those using dual screens, here are some nice dual screen wallpapers.

Edit: And a link to some other useful dual desktop tools.
