Recommend me a cool desktop app

[SpiderPig]

Im looking for a new desktop app that looks snazzy and displays a few of my computer stats like cpu temp etc etc. Also being able to add RSS feeds to display information would be nice.

Something like Coolmon but less to setup.

Edit: Please dont recommend Astonshell. I want it to remain a bit like Windows.

get the Microsoft Zune theme for XP. It doesnt change much, just the look of everything, makes it darker and more pleasant for the eyes, more attractive.

Blinds costs $$ :hmph:

Also Blinds takes any system resources laying around and rapes them, twice.

 

[Tyguy]

you could always buy real blinds and put them over your monitor, might be cheaper

If your computer sucks. I've used Blinds for years without problems.

Hell yeah, **** third party programs that eat up your system's resources.

Hell yes. Vital to me. Although it's currently not agreeing with my computer. It's a bit buggy when you first load it.

I'd like a nice theme, but I still haven't come across one yet, so I'm stickin' with good ol' classic windows. Unless someone finds me a GNOME theme for Windows.
