Screenlets bring a collection of fun things and useful apps to add functional eye candy to the Linux desktop with little or no resource drain on the computer. Windows and Mac machines have their widgets. Linux has its Screenlets. So you can scratch one more reason from the list of why you shouldn’t migrate to an open source operating system. When I held newbie status as a newcomer to the Linux OS, I had little interest in or use for Screenlets. However, back then I was struggling to master the basics of the open source world of computing.
