“Bjango iStat Menus 4”
A nice update from version 3, iStat Menus 4 is a powerful and highly customisable system monitor with nice UI graphics so you can get to all your system data quickly and efficiently.
Pictured:
1/ Sensors. Displays temperature, voltage, current levels, HDD spin rate etc of all your system components. This is how I know that the MacBookAir often runs at temperature above 100˚C when crunching numbers (e.g. video rendering).
2/ Network. Displays current network traffic as well as breaking down who is using how much. Very useful to narrow down which app is using all your network traffic and preventing you to view your streaming video adequately.
3/ CPU. Displays CPU usage load broken down by User / System / Nice / Idle. Also displays load average a la “top”. I am fairly sure that the load average of 1 denotes single core levels — so max for a quad core machine is 4 — but the percentage values denotes 4 as 100% (this is a change from iStat Menus 3 where 100% means 1 core).
4/ Memory. Does not really require much explanation. Inactive is essentially free-able memory. This touches on the specifics of OSX which is too long to explain so I won‘t bother.
5/ Battery. A nice battery breakdown not just about the computer but also all the bluetooth devices which requires charging.
6/ Date/Time. My favorite of the bunch. Highly customisable Date/Time display so I can configure everything in ISO 8601 style complete with time zone information. This makes it easy for me to note the order of events if I decided to screenshot anything. Allows additional cities to be added and configured in the way one wishes.
Verdict: highly recommended for the Mac data nerds. Normal humans can skip if the review above is all jibberish to you.

I switched to Mac recently due to my dying Windows laptop. Even though the new OS did alienated me for a while I got the hang of it soon after.
There is so many thing to tweak on the already appealing desktop. So after hours of tweaking around some tools found on lifehacker and this awesome flickr community I found my desktop :)
Behind the scenes:
- GeekTool
- BowTie
- Praedestinatio wallpaper by =taenaron
Configuration and references:
- GeekTool and BowTie config inspired by Dommm.
- Kinkless Desktop GTD by Ethan.
I finally got my desktop to a point where I like it. I think I'll be able to keep this one for more than a week.

In retrospect, I wasted a lot of time on this... oh well.

That battery is exactly how I felt. Just one of those days. I usually catch up on sleep on the weekend, but this weekend I woke up early every day, and by Monday night, I was out. I almost forgot to take a picture, but just before going to sleep I remembered and snapped a few shots of my laptop's screen. It's probably the closest I've gotten to missing a day yet.
iStat Menus tells me that the current date is both Wednesday the 21st and Thursday the 22nd of October
So I've been making attempts lately at setting my 15" PowerBook G4 up just how I wanted it, playing around with some extra programs like GeekTool and Bowtie. This is the end result.
In the menu, from right to left:
- Time Machine
- Dropbox
- Tweetie
- Adium (with the Amora menu icon)
Adium: using a slightly modified Decay 2.0 Color/List layout, with dia blue Status Icons
GeekTool is displaying the date and time on my desktop, as well as my To Do list (yes, I have lots of tests this week, and yes, I am procrastinating).
Bowtie (with the Zukunft Condensed White theme)
The background is RubikOriginal, found here.
