    Vista / Win 7 Gadgets

    Hmm okay I've found a few really good ones:

    All on there I'm personally using the system Monitor II, Network Monitor II and the BOINC monitor - now since you can alter the BOINC monitors path to the progress XML, i'm thinking it might be possible to have multiple running but I'm going to check this out for sure, XP network sharing joy..

    Yes but XP didn't have gadgets :P and it does make it nice to be able to see your stats on screen remotely - sure you can pull these up via control panel applets but these are a lot cleaner

    You can see your Stats as a desktop in XP Is that what you mean by "stats on screen remotely"
    And you could make it refresh every 30 min or what ever

    What I meant by remotely is on the same LAN - instead of having a web page sitting, it does need an active sharing (read-only) on the BOINC data folder
