Rofl that's been going around for a long time, i think it was originally. "Come to the dark side we have cookies." At one point someone changed it to Oreo's.

Well, since you said don't, I did.
How did you get your name to appear by the clock?
Is that the 64bit version of the RC? Build 7127...?

Fair enough.
Umm I can't remember, there was a post a while back Laznz1 posted with how to do it on Xp. It's in time settings somewhere.
Yes, yes it is.
Also with the clock comment, I meant don't look at the time lol.

Ahh, you're right. It's under "Additional Clocks". You can choose a display name for additional clocks. Thanks!

It changes every 10 minutes, Win7 for the win.
No it's not that, I really can't remember where, but it's where you change what it says for AM or PM. So instead of just having it say AM I put it to say "Dan AM" or instead just PM "Dan PM". I should really try and find it but I can't.

You're right. It's in the Regional and Language Options.

Well I was pretty close, it's a pretty nifty thing to have in case you can't remember your name very well... just look at the clock!
Here is the link to the CPU gadget.

It has mixed reviews but I like it.
The operating system I am running in Windows Vista 64 bit.
- Different Wallpaper
- Sidebar W/ Gadgets
- Object Dock
- Auto Hide Taskbar
I like it all, Works great for me.

Windows 7 has no Sidebar at all. The Gadgets just sit like icons on your desktop.
That is a cool CPU gauge. :good:

Yes the windows sidebar has been taken out. Instead you can just have the gadgets without the sidebar on our desktop. To activate the gadgets go to the start menu, and type in gadgets. Click 'Desktop Gadgets' and you get the gadgets in a separate window, just like in Vista, and drag and drop them on to you desktop.
Updated
I put the Task Bar on the top of the screen and moved Objectdock to the bottom, Also took off a few icons.
This set-up works great for me now!
