Mac feature: Dashboard
Windows version: Yahoo Widgets
If Exposé lives in your Mac's top left corner, you've got another three corners for activating the dashboard. This is a layer that pops up over your desktop and holds all your widgets. They're mini-applications that track particular information, such as the time, the weather, your e-mail or whatever you want.
PC users will know them as gadgets. Or widgets. To get gadgets -- or widgets -- going on Windows, simply download the app formerly known as Konfabulator, now under the name of Yahoo Widgets.
Konfabulator adds another pop-out dock to your screen, or gives you the option of a Mac-style dashboard layer called heads-up. Then you can add widgets to keep you updated on whatever information you want to display.
