Publisher's Description
From Raging Menace:
MenuMeters is a set of CPU, memory, disk, and network monitoring tools for MacOS X. Although there are numerous other programs which do the same thing, none had quite the feature set I was looking for. Most were windows that sat in a corner or on the desktop, which are inevitably obscured by document windows on a PowerBook's small screen. Those monitors which used the menubar mostly used the NSStatusItem API, which has the annoying tendency to totally reorder my menubar on every login.
The MenuMeters monitors are true SystemUIServer plugins (also known as Menu Extras). This means they can be reordered using command-drag and remember their positions in the menubar across logins and restarts.MenuMeters is open source freeware released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
What's new in this version:
- Panther compatible.
- Fixed memory display for machines with more than 2GB of RAM.
- Other minor bugfixes.

"Works well with a small footprint"
Version: MenuMeters 1.5
Pros
Quick-glance summary of what is happening, and by mousing down on the menu items, you get all the detail you could want.
Cons
None. Well, maybe one: I wish it had an auto- or alert-on- update feature. It's a small issue which I don't feel counts against this outstanding product.

"Menu Meters works as it always has: perfectly."
Version: MenuMeters 1.5
Pros
Includes the system monitors most needed in user-chosen formats & colors which sit (as colorfully as you wish) in the menu-bar and in System Preferences.
Cons
Haven't found any yet.
Summary
This app reminds me of driving at night in a car with plenty of gauges. Instead of hoping all is well under the hood; there are those comforting numbers, arrows & icons letting you in on what is going on behind the scenes. I've been using MenuMeters since my 1st computer, a G3 iBook. It still works fine on that and on my MacBook Pro both of which could use replacing.
