Widget Watch: iStat Pro 3.0

iStat Pro 3.0 has been released and it is one of the only widgets that I actually find useful. It displays all sorts of information about your Mac at a glance, and in version 3.0 it is even easier to read. 4 new skins and new anti-aliased graphs for cpu and memory really make this widget a cut above the rest.

iStat Pro 3.0 is free, but if you enjoy it be sure to get the developer some cash. Good widgets don't grow on trees.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in.

Great app, Marc - very helpful and very simple to use. I like the dual processor display in the new version. Expect a donation.

Rob (#6 ) :: Currently cycles are only shown for MacBooks and MacBook Pros. We'll try to add cycle support for iBooks and Powerbooks in one of the next minor releases.

I like iStat but I've always wondered why the Iconfactory didn't turn iPulse into a widget... it would be a nice one.
