iStat pro

I guess I never imagined that a widget called “iStat pro” would actually be free. Apart from the misnomer, it’s a pretty well-designed and useful thing.

I’m reactivating the Dashboard and removing iStat menus because I’m getting tired of the clutter in my menubar. Also, there’s apparently no way to get iStat menus to list the top processes, which the iStat widgets do (I just like to know why my computer gets unresponsive when it does). And the Dashboard feels more responsive in Leopard — I haven’t actually upgraded yet, but I’m preparing my setup.
