Expose_and_Spaces
You want to know about something I never use? Dashboard. I hate when I accidentally hit that key, and then it leaves the Dashboard process running...

Just make an AppleScript app that quits the Dock and assign it to a keystroke. I've done this since once in a while it's helpful to run the Dashboard, but at least to me, those little things use a bunch of RAM.

Dashboard? It runs calculator and iStat and thats it. Nice to flick to for a quick calculation or to check on cpu usage, then flick out. I thought I would use it more when it was first announced....

It's cool that the calculator is available as a quick little dashboard widget, but I LOVE having it built into Spotlight so I've never used the dashboard one. And my stats are done through MenuMeters (I've heard iStat - or some program by the same company - does menus too and is better than MenuMeters, so I may check that out sometime.) I do use the Dashboard though when I want to see a quick weather forecast or calendar.

There's a nice "Stop Dashboard" widget (oh the irony!) but it always right there when you need it - in the Dashboard. I use it quite often (its also a quick way to kill the Dock, if, like me your Spaces sometimes get stuck). Edited on Apr 16, '10 03:32:10PM by lowbatteries

why not disable the shortcut for invoking dashboard? |
