Even if you looked at it everyday you use your computer, I highly doubt you would say it's the most famous photograph if asked.

It would take me a few seconds to recognize it, but, I would. I don't think that background was default on all XP

Dunno about most famous. There's a couple images I'd consider more famous regardless, all news photos naturally.

The XP background is the most recognizable photo most certainly.

Same as music, the record-holder for most recognizable bit of music is the opening bars to the Rolling Stones 'Can't get no (satisfaction)'. I certainly wouldn't call it the most famous song of all time, but it's so recognizable so quickly that it gets the nod for that instead.

Gosh, dang. This image sure did poop in a lot of people's cereal in the morning.

I posted a photo to the internet that looked similar a number of years ago and the majority of comments were about how it looked like windows wallpaper.

I am 79 yo, have been in photography for ever. Yet, I haven’t seen this picture. Does some one wants to create a « famous » picture?
Btw, I am not crazy about this picture

According to the video the RB67 took 4:3 ratio photos. Dang, Mamiya should have been calling their camera RB34 all along.

I actually don't like this picture. It gives me a bad feeling when I look at it..brings me back to a time when I switched to Linux.
