    Hey guys, just got a 1520 and liking Vista, wondering if all this gloss will lose its wow factor. Anyway, I liked the sidebar gadgets but it really didn't do much so I disabled it. What sidebar gadgets do you use? Do you use Konfabulator? What about Google's Desktop? Care to share a screenshot? I'm looking for some stuff that would help with multiple Gmail accounts, Google calendar maybe or overall cool stuff I guess.

    Konfabulator is now part of Yahoo Widgets. I don't like these widgets/gadets stuff, because they tend to take up too much of the screen.

    Well for the 1520, the resolution allows for quite a lot of space.

    Konfabulator... seems nice as long as yahoo does not attempt to "take over" your computer with tool bars, menu bars, etc, etc....
