Desktop Sidebar (like Vista)

[ayu]

Well, i found one thing that i liked about Vista, the sidebar. It's pretty fun to play with. But, it's a resource eater and only works good for Vista.

So, i was checking around and found this ^^

Nothing to worry about mate ;P

It doesn't work in Vista (no use having it there anyway)

There are modifications so that you can use the Vista sidebar with XP, but it's really bad and hard to get rid of (i heard)

Well as of now I'm saving up for a new laptop, so when i get that i will try it out on this one and make make a tutorial on how to remove it just in case. Do you mind posting a picture of what you picked and how it looks on your desktop? Thought it would be interesting to know.

You can add programs to it if you want.
