Product Description:

MenuMeters is a set of CPU, memory, disk, and network monitoring tools for MacOS X. Although there are numerous other programs which do the same thing, none had quite the feature set I was looking for. Most were windows that sat in a corner or on the desktop, which are inevitably obscured by document windows on a PowerBook's small screen. Those monitors which used the menubar mostly used the NSStatusItem API, which has the annoying tendency to totally reorder my menubar on every login.

The MenuMeters monitors are true SystemUIServer plugins (also known as Menu Extras). This means they can be reordered using command-drag and remember their positions in the menubar across logins and restarts. MenuMeters is open source freeware released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

No joy in Snow Leopard 10.6.1 on new 2.53 GHz Mac Mini... - Version: 1.4b3, 11/5/2009 02:47PM PST

This is a must-have utility! I've grown very fond of MenuMeters over the years. I would gladly pay a reasonable shareware fee for software of this high caliber.

I had no problem with MenuMeters 1.3 on my father's Core2Duo MacBook Pro under OS 10.6.1, but version 1.4b3 won't launch on my brand new 2.53 GHz Mac Mini and 10.6.1. Version 1.3 was working perfectly on my PowerBook before I migrated the account to the new Mini; however following migration 1.3 gave a message that it's not compatible with Intel CPUs. I'ill gladly share log files if the developer wants those.

SL problem? - Version: 1.4b3, 10/31/2009 02:51PM PST

The network module does not display the upload/download info and the full descriptor of the primary interface. I have no idea about the other modules- the network is the only one I use.

I just thought it was time... - Version: 1.4b3, 9/27/2009 07:13AM PST

Andreas..

...for me to add another 5 stars to the rating. It has always deserved more than 5.

Does anyone really use a Mac without at least the CPU 'thermometer' in the menubar?
