Serious Samurize (or simply "Samurize") is a freeware system monitoring and desktop enhancement engine for Microsoft Windows.
The core of Samurize is the desktop client that displays a "config" (similar to a widget/gadget) anywhere on the screen. There is also a taskbar client, a clock client, a server, and a screensaver. The client's main purpose is to display information about the computer, such as CPU usage, available RAM/HD space, network conditions, uptime, etc..
It can also be extended by using VBScript, JScript, Perl, Python, Ruby scripts and DLL plugins, which provide virtually unlimited possibilities. There are scripts/plugins which can get weather reports, news headlines, music controllers, etc.. Samurize includes a WYSIWYG config editor used to create the configs. A "config" consists of a collection of "meters", and is saved into a INI file in the "configs" folder of the Samurize installation path. "Configs" can be packed to be shared with other users by using an included tool.
