If you don't know what widgets are, they are tiny applications that are "embedded" on your desktop wall paper. Very useful and gives a complete new look to your THinkpad.

BTW, I am also using StyleXP and ObjectDock to emulate OSX. All three are shareware.

You seem to like the mac interface quite a bit. Why not get a Mac and run OS X, its really nice. I'd get one myself but the TP is my work machine and thus I needed a PC (but it had to be a thinkpad :) ).

I do have a powerbook:) that was from my X22. I am going to upgrade it to 802.11g so that I can share files between the Powerbook and the X22 easily through my airport express.

Yeah, but do you see that nice stereo system back there? it's connected via an optical digital cable to the APX. The APX is way behind that surge protector on the left. Goodbye radio, hello Shoutcast :)

Nice. I tried all of those before, eventually gave up on Konfab because it wasn't entirely stable, especially in moving in and out of Konspace. Also, all those widgets add to idle CPU usage, and I hate having to nuke stuff whenever I go on battery power.
