The iStat Pro widget is a very elegant system monitor including temperature

Nice to see they finally updated iStat.

When I used it before it was waaaaaay too small, this looks useable now

Could that have been iStat nano rather than iStat Pro? I think Pro has always had the multiple sections

Yeah, Apple site estimated 26-28th June but when I clicked "track this shipment" I was greeted with an UPS tracker that said 22nd June

Needless to say I was pleasantly suprised when I saw the UPS van coming down the drive this morning.

First impressions are that the HD resolution is STUNNING, and that extra 7200pm does make things a bit snappier! Just about to wipe the disk and put on all my software.. so more pics later.
