Do you use dashboard?

[case2001]

This is going to sound crazy, but i am new to Macs. I just bought an older MacBook Pro 15" core duo. I love the Dashboard. It is probably one of my favorite aspects of the Mac OS X. I like being able to check the weather and look up stuff on the dictionary. i even found an HP calculator widget that is great. i \ like being able to jump to those for a quick calculation or to look up a word with just a single keystroke, then right back to work. i use it so many times a day I cannot even count.

Fantastic!

Love the dash! Its like having two computers Being able to convert values and check the status of things at the push of a button is very useful when needed, and I like how it keeps the main screen clutter free; whats not to like?

Never. Actually disabled it using TinkerTool.

Dashboard is one of my most used apps. Like many others, its my go-to for iStat, calculator and weather.

The one I use the most is TunesText, it gets the lyrics to the song playing in iTunes and adds it to the song. Hassle free and works great.
