Convenient (10/15/2007)
I love this gadget, its perfect for a lot of things for like locking down the computer or just putting it on standby since you'll only be gone a short time. I love this gadget! Great job with it! And i love the themes, i wonder if Vista comes with those same themes! IDK but i wish!

Excellent! (9/24/2007)
A perfect gadget, exactly what i needed. My m8 uses my pc a lot and is not too competent so an easy way of switching users, shutting down etc is great and saves me a lot of hassle. One other thing, my wireless mouse and keyboard would always die if I switched users (I had to remove and replace the dongle). It's irritated me for months but for some reason it works perfectly with this gadget. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Extremely handy and useful! (11/6/2007)
I am one of those "GEEK" people, so I do everything the hard way, but my Fiance'e is handicapped and has trouble using her hands. This sidebar eliminates MANY clicks she would otherwise have to endure. I even love it! I usually write my own scripts and I can recognize when one is very well written---and this is one. Absolutely top-notch and i congratulate Incomp-Creations. I forgot, she doesn't even have to move the mouse down to raise the taskbar to see the time now---it's on the Gadget!

Most Versitile, Excellent (12/19/2007)
Great combination of button choices. Was looking for Switch User but the additional choices was as pleasant surprise and will be useful. Ability to reorder buttons is GREAT - short form can show your most used. -- How about option to show both the date *and* time? -- I just downgraded my rating because the "Switch User" button functions same as Lock. Still like it, though.
