I've never used task manager. What does it do?

As a Mac user yes it is a rip off but it's a fun one at least and actually with a Pocket PC's one screen at a time interface it works really well :)

FYI this requires the .Net Compact Framework (not included). It claims to only run on iPaq and Pocket PC 2003, but it works fine on my Toshiba e550G with Pocket PC 2002.

Pretty cool. Matches my Macs.

Does everyone see it consuming almost 2MB of system ram while loaded, and 3-5MB of while active?

Makes me glad I have 128MB of ram (XDA II) to play with.

It's an understandable requirement - think about how much space a 320x240 bitmap requires.
