This an excellent program and very complete except in one area. The G5 2.7 uses LCS to cool and it would be great if they had a monitor for the LCS coolest system. I read some bad things about the LCS and was hoping to find a monitor for it if it was to spring a leak.

Best hardware monitor for Mac OS X. Shame it is a Widget only.
The desktop version is not free.

Best free monitor widget for Mac OSX. You can customize it for your needs too.

I've been using iStat for about a year and this is a great update. I particularly like the addition of the mouse battery usage icon. Saves me from opening System Preferences periodically to check it. Also, I'm not seeing the CPU usage problem Bambam has posted about. There's no detectible CPU usage by this widget on my machine. Rick

Too bad it is a widget, an app would have been better, widget are ram hungry, even when you don't need them. Nice app though! Keep up the good work!

Any chance of this becoming a 64-bit widget? Hate having two dashboard clients running when I have this widget active.

iStat Pro really is great. A beautiful, functional, low-impact "dashboard" of what's going on on your Mac.

I've used iStat Pro on and off for years; I was using iStat Menus because it was easier but right now it's incompatible with 10.6 (they know about this and will be addressing it), so I'm back to iStat Pro which is really a very nice dashboard widget.

No longer works on 10.6.4. Hoping to see an update as it is a very handy utility :)

Actually it does work fine on my MBP 10.6.4

Version 4.9 great, but one little problem here : when iStat Pro 4.9 is active in Dashboard, the Dashboard applicaton eats about 10% of prosessor activity, as shown by Activity Monitor, even when the widgets are not shown on the desktop.

Disabling iStat Pro 4.9 then results in near 0% activity required by Dashboard.

Re-installation of iStat Pro 4.8 also results in near 0% activity required by Dashboard.

Is it my iMac G5 - 2GHz - 2GB Ram - 10.5.7, or is it version 4.9 of iStat Pro ?

I just updated and it runs flawless. Maybe it's your machine. I'm on a Macbook Pro, Leopard 10.5.7 and the Dashboard takes 0.0 CPU if I believe what the Activity Monitor says.

Gunni had trouble on 22 Dec 2007

Is anyone else running Leopard having a problem with this neat little widget? I downloaded and ran it in Tiger and it displayed normally. In Leopard, however, it displays as if it my monitor were broken. Other widgets display just fine, but iStat Pro is pixelated and difficult, but not impossible, to read. Bob

I am running 10.4.7 on a MackBook Pro 2.16, and I can't get iStat pro to tell me the speed of my fans. It acts as though there are no fans. If I can't find the fan speed with iStat pro, is there another widget or program that will tell me?

Lee Majors had trouble on 18 Jul 2006

This seems a bit to beta for me, hangs on the loading screen then sucks up all of my remaining CPU power.

Unusual, cause iSlayer is awesome, and all other versions have 'scrolled like butter'.

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, this is very much a beta... looking at the widget it's hard to gauge how much change has gone on under the hood. Pretty much everything has been remade.

There will be a beta 2 soon that will fix all known bugs, then we'll almost be ready for prime time. Due to the amount of users using iStat, we want to make the release as clean as possible.

Cheers,
Marc @ islayer.

This version is (way) slower than SysStat nano 1.3...

It shouldn't be.

Nothing has changed with the code that should affect performance. Please check again.

RaYz had trouble on 10 Feb 2006

The temperature monitor does not seem to update itself. It's only when I launch the TempMonitor widget do I see that the SysStat temps get "jumpstarted" to reflect the current temperatures.

I'm using a Powerbook G4 1.67Ghz (hi-res) model.

We don't have one of those machines handy for testing, but we'll look into that.

Thanks.

RaYz replied on 16 Feb 2006

If it adds any weight to this, the situation is the same for tempstat as well.

Marc Edwards (developer) replied on 16 Feb 2006

They both use the same plugin we've developed, so that makes sense.
