Tony I was checking out your blog and noticed a couple screen caps of your macbook and noticed the small cap of the upper right hand corner of your screen. Seems like you have a couple mods to monitor CPU usage and more.
Fill me in on what you've got going on there...
P.S made it a topic in case anyone else is interested

I'm running iStat menus to monitor my machine.
From left to right:
Caffeine -- disables power saving mods (dimmed screen, screensaver, sleep, etc). Great for watching videos without being interrupted.
Temperature gauge -- displays CPU core, but there are 8 other sensors in the machine, available as a drop down.
Network monitor -- in/out, totals for the runtime, peak usage.
Memory usage gauge
CPU usage gauge -- dual core, so there are two of them.
Calendar/Time -- oddly enough also a part of the iStat suite. It gives me a quick access calendar, so this replaced the system clock.
Spaces -- Which desktop I'm on.
Network connection -- wireless.
Sound
Battery
Current user -- with fast switching enabled.
Spotlight -- search.

| I just bought a MacBook Pro and I'm really new to Mac OS X. The last Mac I used had Mac OS 7 lol. Can you please explain how you got the CPU meters?
