I havent noticed a speed update; but it fixes things and it comes often, so i'm happy to accept

Sorry to hi-jack but anyone got any good ideas for widgets? I'm using my Gmail one and the weather one, but I dont use the others.. a TV one would be good, but all I can find is the horrid one on the apple website

I use this one http://www.ponyfoam.com/tvwidget/ though it doesn't look particularly nice it does function fairly well and has some pretty comprehensive listings.

Another of my favourite widgets is systat nano good for getting quick stats such as temperature, ram/cpu usage, network speed/status and all that kind of stuff.

O.o

whats a widget...apart from a non existant good used in economic analysis...similar to RSS?

It's basically a small utility that runs in the background, which you can hide/show and gives specific functionality or information at a glance

..check out http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/ for more info

..and yes, you can use them to display RSS feeds if you wish

It took me a wee while to find this again (no longer got OSX at home) but Statosphere looks quite groovy for stat reporting... not free though.
