[comp.sys.apple] Finder desktop color

... A little background first...
I've been using an Apple II since 1981.  My family purchased a IIgs in
Dec. of 1987.  At work I do HP Precision Architecture stuff, unrelated to
PC's.  I'm writing this on an HP9000/350 Un*x workstation with a 17" high
resolution color monitor.  This systems runs Xwindows.
...

I'm absolutly amazed at myself; I actually like using the Finder!  Its
not as wizzy as Xwindows, but this 350 is running at 25mhz!  Congrats to
Apple, the Finder doesn't seem to run 10 times slower.

However, I hate the 'yucky' purple/violet/blue desktop color! Does anybody
know how to change this terrible color??  Perhaps a patch or hidden feature.
