Version: DesktopX 3.2
"Great for those who like desktop options"
Pros: I'm very much into colour and desktop themes so this was ideal as a program that combines both - even on the trial you've full use of most aspects of the software - enough to provide as many desktop variations as you're likely to want.
Cons: Price would be my only objection given that this is only 1 component of Stardock Central which comprises all the other things on a desktop e..g icons, cursors, etc and in order to get best usage you need to buy ALL of them!! Think they should drop the price down to $5 a go - then I'd buy it!! For now I'll just keep reinstalling the trial!

Version: DesktopX 3.2
Pros: The widgets! The widgets! They offer almost infinite ways to customize your PC. Widgets are little items on desktop that displays information It ranges from useful tools such as RAM/CPU usage to mere visual pleasure, such as swimming fishy.
Cons: Recommended if you have a fast processor (At least a Celeron, P4+ would be better) and quite a bit of RAM (512MB and up).

Version: DesktopX 3.2
Pros: This is another great update. The memory usage is very low and the amount of widgets increases everyday.
There are widgets such as a Gmail checker, weather objects, and many more.
You can even have a butterfly on your desktop.

Version: DesktopX 3.2
"A fun and even useful add-on from a world of desktop & browser add-ons."
Pros: The objects made for 'Stardock' for free are usually of high quality and have something for everyones taste. Easy to use.
Cons: The price should be ridiculed. As I said, the objects without which the software would be useless are free to 'Stardock'. There are also many similar programmes available for free. That's why I dumped the software years ago.
Also, When I hear 'no support' it annoys me. Everything has to be instant or have someone hold your hand. Quit being so lazy and figure things out.
