Each of us has our own preferences. I love the CPU meter and couldn't care less about how it looks. My laptop has no hard-drive light, and this gadget tells me when bootup is finished. Further, it tells me when there is an inordinate amount of CPU activity, such as when I found that an update routine was running constantly and hogging resources (unltimately identified in the Resource Monitor). Of course, I can always leave the Task Manager running, but the CPU meter is more compact and convenient.
