Rainmeter is a system modification tool for Windows PCs. It installs an overlay menu on top of your desktop that shows useful information about the state of your computer, among other things.
By default, Gnometer installs a dark horizontal bar at the top of the screen, which contains floating gadgets. There were 4 gadgets installed at first: calendar, drives, recycle bin, and system. The drives gadget shows free space on your hard drives, the recycle bin shows the space of your trash bin and the system gadget shows your CPU ussage, RAM, and SWAP. You can of course add other gadgets. I ended up adding a weather gadget powered by MSN weather.
You can add new gadgets to both themes from the tray icon. Switching between themes seems to erase your settings, so you have to start configuring again. It takes a bit for themes to switch.
Pros
- Very good-looking and useful modification tool
- Lots of configuration options
Cons
- None
