Jorge, that puts the widget floating over everything. With Amnesty, you can place the widget in your desktop. Major difference.

Also, the other features (opacity, multi-dashboard screens) are other reasons to perhaps consider it.

How about doing it for free, without the need of Amnesty?

Want to move a widget to the main window layer? Of course you do. Here’s how: go to Terminal and type the command “defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES”. Still in Terminal, type “killall Dock” to restart Dashboard (and the Dock). Activate Dashboard (by default, you do that by pressing F12). Find the widget you want to put on the main layer and drag it a bit, but don’t let go of the mouse button. While you’re still holding the mouse button down, press the Dashboard keystroke again and release it, then release the mouse button. Your widget should now be floating above the Desktop and windows.

I’m just playing devil’s advocate here…

But if I previously bought Konfabulator, why should I buy Amnesty when it does what Konfabulator already does?

Yeah, there’s a difference in widgets between Dashboard and Konfabulator, but there’s enough of a community behind each that duplicating the widgets for each ‘platform’ should be a null point.

I’ll take a look at Amnesty, but to me it seems like a late player to the party, trying to capitalize on the fresh to OS X/people with a bad memory…

Just my $.02
