Other details can include the battery status, network utilization and virtual memory.You can use Steampunk Resource Monitor on single, dual or quad core systems by specifying which gauges should be displayed. If you care about the CPU load, the widget preferences enable you to tune the refresh time and animations.Additionally, the user can double click on any of the gauges in order to run a command and open a third-party application or a system tool. The list of commands is editable so you can launch any utility or program with minimum effort.By default, the interface comes with most of the gauges enabled but you can also customize the aspect by disabling certain gauges that you are not interested in. You can also change the widget size and transparency or keep it on top of the other windows.Since Yahoo!
