One of the apps I can't live without is a tiny, always on top clock that I made. (Despite having a desktop PC with a large widescreen monitor, I still like my taskbar hidden)
Size & colors can be user configured and you can position it anywhere you want. You are not restricted to which part of the screen to place it on...only restricted to not being able to move it off the screen of your main display (not entirely multi-monitor friendly)

Nice little program! :Thmbsup:
However I cannot run the program on my Windows 7 32-bit netbook. (I have installed the redistributable package.) I tried it in Windows Vista 32-bit (my work computer) and it worked, but after several minutes it also went crashed. Here's the error I got in Windows 7:

What seems to be the problem?
Anyway, about the date format -- where I live, we usually use DD-MM-YYYY format, while the rest of the world seems to be using MM-DD-YYYY format. This has led to many case of confusion when using all-digit date format. That's why I prefer to display the month's name. But perhaps shorter words (e.g. Sat, Nov 27, 2010) is better to save space. Would you do that? ;)
Oh, and I love the anti-features, Exactly what I need! :Thmbsup:
Thanks,

Hrm, that's weird. A crash?
I've had it running on my 32-bit XP laptop for several hours, and on my desktop (without the battery info, obviously) as well. I'll dive into the issue and see what I can do to fix it.
And yeah - sometimes less choice is more choice. That's how the Apple-fanatics reason, right? xD

I have tried WinBar, it's nice and more friendly than StatBar, but still not exactly what I need :)
@skwire & app103
Power Meter + app's DClock 2 look like what I need but the Power Meter wastes too much space :(
@worstje
Thanks :)
BTW for my main work station I actually prefer more choices, but for a netbook the simpler the better ;)
