Dashboard useful with RAM

Recently I picked up two 1Gb RAM sticks for me and the Mrs. Prior to getting the RAM and the iBook, Dashboard was not all that useful. Sure, it has some killer looking widgets (like FlickIt) and provided a way to get access to certain information and tools quickly - but if I had more than 1 widget open at a time my iMac was sluggish.

It goes without saying that my iMac is much slower than my new iBook, but adding the RAM has made Dashboard very useful. No lag, hardly any loading time and incredibly responsive. Bring on the Widgets baby!

Can’t wait for the next version of FlickIt.
