I finally have updated from Vista to Windows 7 for my main rig, and now I've found that Windows Sidebar has been pretty much discontinued due to security issues...

 

I was running a GPU monitor, a CPU monitor, a Network monitor, and other monitoring software (EVGA Precision and Nvidia system monitor).

 

I have had a little look at Rainmaker, but I was wondering what other people are using...

The sidebar does not exist but you can still use the same widgets.

I've had both OpenHardwareMonitors widget in use and also HWiNFOs. Latter is pain to config but will look great.
