[X4U] Re: Lack of sleep - What about widgets I wanna know

[Germain M.]

Hi, very interesting thread. I followed every part of it. But  
concerning the Widgets. What are the pros and cons? Do they eat so  
much ram? I use them at times cause they're ther but it's true if  
they weren't there, I wouldn't miss them that much. So where does lie  
the truth: keep them or remove them?

Thanks
