Who uses Windows Sidebar?
So, who all uses the sidebar. If so, what gadgets do you use?

I use the weather one, the sticky notes, downloaded cpu meter, and the everest temp monitor. Oh and the quick launch thing.

I use it on my other computer (the Dell), and I have the clock, calender, weather, F@H stats, and the processor/RAM load monitor.

Get rid of your Vista sidebar and download Yahoo Widgets instead. They are smaller and there are 1000's to chose from for free. Not HOGGING you system as much either... They got some real cool stuff for everyone...

unable 2 fold effectively

alot of people here on OCN seem to now have 4GB of ram. so the resource hog is at the least of our problems.
