Detroit 2008: The Definitive Desktop Wallpaper Gallery

Click the image above for dozens of wallpaper for your desktop
We've spent the first two days of the 2008 Detroit Auto Show going full throttle - attending press conferences, photographing vehicles, and posting non-stop. The only problem is that thousands of other journalists are doing the same, and it can sometimes be tough to get good, clean photographs of the vehicles without dozens of people crowding the cars. Fortunately, the third press day is more relaxed and offers a better chance to take pictures of the cars. All of the press conferences are over, the vehicles are displayed nicely in their stands, and the crowds of journalists and photographers have lessened. We spent the first half of today photographing our favorite vehicles at the show and have created a gallery of super high resolution images (1920 pixels wide!) just so you can adorn your desktop with the likes of the Audi R8 V12 TDI, Mazda Furai, Land Rover LRX, and more. Feel free to browse through the gallery below and download your favorites.

Nice, very nice... Though I'd love larger versions and some vertical shots to use as wallpaper in my ipod touch.

Thanks, how about some for my cell phone? I'm not a tech guy so I assume anything is possible.

The freedom to be locked in to proprietary hardware?
Got any other good ones?

no it's BSD unix nothing proprietary about it, just another myth...Apple hardware is open as any, it even runs windows...if you have too and with VM ware you can run any OS you want. Just give it a look. Visit an Apple Store. You might be surprised what you might see and leaner something.

Yeah, if you ignore the 90%+ of PC users installed base Windows is dead. Otherwise, seriously, a Mac fanboy seizure because dude said "Wallpaper"? I mean, honestly, I expect this on Engadget, I expect this on Gizmodo. Dude, we're looking at pretty pictures of cars here. Pretty pictures of cars know no system prejudice.
