Yes, those cpu meters, calendar, clock and weather windows are really just one app: samurize. It's website is here: http://www.samurize.com but I couldn't connect to it just now. I'ver never used samurize so I can't tell you much about it, unfortunately.

Kobe, the rest of that screenshot requires DesktopX. It was recently submitted to the WC Library.

The bar at the bottom (the one that says 'Main', 'Desktop', etc...) is WorkShelf in the collapsed to tabs state. Check it out at

I think he is talking about my desktop-me thinks. Yes that is samurize I use for stats, calander, and weather,oh, and the clock. It seems as though the samurize site is always down but if you want a copy you can go to majorgeeks.com they have several alternate download sites available.If your interested -those configs and scripts used are made by judge and you can grab them over at neowin! Hope this helps!
