Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has ever used the ‘Smart bar XP’. I downloaded it a few days ago and have loved it ever since. It is this really cool software with the 'LongHorn' look that is just like a taskbar only better. It has got icons like ‘my computer’, ‘recycle bin’, and so much other stuff, plus you can also add more icons on the bar.

I can also access various websites that carry information on sports, weather etc. simply by adding a panel for it on the ‘smart bar’.
Once a panel is added it displays a link to various new articles and news pieces.

Just like many other desktop enhancement software, this too does eat up a little bit of memory, but for a free of cost, ad and spy ware software, I think it’s worth giving a try.

Have any of you ppl out there used it? have you had any problems that i should be aware of??

Hey Ashish,
Thanks for taking the screenshot, never seen that before but it looks like it would be very useful.
Does it use much memory when it's running?

FatalSw1tch, what did you have to do to be a beta tester for long horn? Will you be getting a full working copy to test with or just get certain features from it to bug test/debug?

John
 
wow... must be really cool to be a beta tester of a O/S :)

hmm... i takes about about 7000K's on my PC... but i have got 512 MB's of RAM.. so doesnt really bother me that much.
