[X-Newbies] Computer icon on desktop.

[Scott]

It works on mine without the sidebar line, but only if I haven't  
already opened a 'computer' window with a width of 0 -if I have  
already done so, it uses that existing width as the new default.

You can fix it by manually opening the sidebar of a computer window,  
then running the script again (without the sidebar line), or   
changing the sidebar width in the script to something larger. My  
MacBook defaults to 147.
