Most of you should already known or at least heard about Windows
Vista Sidebar, it is a pretty and useful utility that allows us to
organize our desktop providing the ability to add gadgets (small
applications) on a vertical bar located on any side of the screen. Some
gadgets available are: a weather monitor, a clock, a CPU and Ram meter
and digital Post-it.
Unfortunately Microsoft“s sidebar is exclusive for Windows Vista;
therefore there is no way to get those functionalities if you are
running Windows XP, well at least not from Microsoft.
Vista Rainbar is a free sidebar clone for Windows XP from gavatx
that also works on Windows Vista, it latest version 4.3, consumes less
ram than other similar sidebars for Windows and includes an installer
to enhance the user experience but some users, including me, had issues
make it run the first time.
It has all gadgets mentioned above plus some extras, most of its
gadgets have different themes and an option to change their background;
therefore you can make them look as you wish. Even the sidebar itself
has a lot of themes to choose from! It also has a crystal gallery like
Vista own sidebar!
Vista Rainbar still is a good sidebar clone, it just need to be more
polished in order to replace Vista sidebar and provides the best
alternative to it on Windows XP.
