        'ey thanks!  You know, as much playing with kde as I do--- and I missed that 
one... very nice.  I notice that right clicking on the colored bars gives me 
a configuration menu--- and hovering over the panel applet with the mouse 
also provides a real-time text update as well.  heh.. I just pegged the cpu 
bars by grabbing the top of my mail editor and moving it around the screen a 
bit...  isn't it just amazing that most of the time linux just sits there 
idle waiting to be almost 100% useful? Its got it all... fabulous resource 
management... and its fun too.  I'm tempted to launch into a joyful 
hyperbole, but I spare y'all...
