Curious about what others have in their side bars in vista, I have a network monitor, quad core and ram monitor, clock, local weather widget, and an anime character that sings a silly song for my daughter.
Nothing, disabled it after 10 minutes on my first Vista machine and have never used it since. I love my real estate on my screen and dont want to give it up even on the machine at work with dual screens.
Gotta say that I like the side bar and some of the widgets though most are garbage made by fanboys. I cant see the hate for vista mostly because it has been working flawlessly for me and has been even better than xp ever was. I guess that hardware has something to do with it as I have seen some machines that ran horribly slow even with 3 gigs of ram while others have done fine with 2 gigs and some on here have said that they have machines running 1 gig of ram.
