OVERVIEW:
I've searched through the internet but I couldn't find what I wanted. So I've decided to make my own by pulling together a couple of widgets and refining its looks...and here's what I've got. The gauges tell you the status of your computer. Depending on your system, some widgets may not apply. (e.g. Battery status on an iMac)

GAUGES:
Tachometer - CPU Usage
Fuel Gauge - Battery Status
Temperature Gauge - Computer's Temperature
Speedometer - Free RAM & Uptime (Built-in Odometer in minutes)

DOWNLOAD:
Mirror 1 - [link]
Mirror 2 - [link]

FIXES:
-Speedometer & Tachometer
---Fixes issues with macbook and ram settings.

NOTE:
Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger is required. If you’re using Safari, click the download link. When the widget download is complete, show Dashboard, click the Plus sign to display the Widget Bar and click the widget’s icon in the Widget Bar to open it. If you’re using a browser other than Safari, click the download link. When the widget download is complete, unarchive it and place it in /Library/Widgets/ in your home folder. show Dashboard, click the Plus sign to display the Widget Bar and click the widget’s icon in the Widget Bar to open it.

XD I love it. Great concept. Im not too sure the Speedometer really works quite right but maybe its just me.

I've always wanted a dashboard on my dashboard.

Thank you. I am aware that some widgets may not work on the new MacBooks. It'll work fine on iBooks though.

The dashboard gauges are great! they combine great looks with a handy tool. Great for (mac) laptop users everywhere! However the only thing i could point out is that the temperature and battery ones dont work properly on my macbook, that i got yesterday!

Ya, I am aware of that. However, using an iBook, I have no idea how to figure the way to fix it... :sniff:

i love the design, it's wonderful, but how do I read the ram one ? do i just estimate a percentage ? and can I see the code u use for the heat one ? maybe i could try importing code from somewhere else and then porting it to fit the universal code tht'd be required on the macbook

Procrastinate now! Don't put it off for later.

If the Ram shows a high value, you have a lot of ram left. All codes are in HTML, Javascript, and Perl. Ctrl-Click the widget and select "show package contents". In there, you will find all the things responsible for the working of the widget. If you managed to fix it, please let me know. Thank you!
