Useful apps

Firs I wanted to make fonts & windows smaller. I needed a gui tweak app to do this. I used "Compiz config", and "Ubuntu Tweak", from "Software Center". Both are pretty strait forward, it's under "fonts"..

Other thing I try to configure, is processor clock management, I installed (this way) "CPUFreq", but I can only choose between 1670, 1330 and 1000 mhz. I  have to find a solution with better scaling. Any ideas?

I installed "System Load Indicator", gives a nice picture about what's happening on my hardware.

Other tings I installed are gimp, dropbox, skype, they work fine. Interesting that gimp and libre office is super quick compared to running it in windows, or running ms office.
