Very nice :)

Kind of a concise summary of some of the msinfo32.exe information ... but better looking and more readable B)

Where do you want suggestions/bugs/feedback?

What's the point of the 3D glasses on the logo?

Great program - I could see it replacing CPU-Z and GPU-Z. How do you guys do this for free? I will definitely donate once I am out of college.

I'm guessing for the fact that glasses are nicknamed 'specs' and with the name Speccy the glasses seems appropriate.

One suggestion - give an option to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

I get that and makes sense for a fun logo but why 3D glasses, that's the bit I don't get. To me it gives the impression it's some sort of movie related software, just can't see the thinking behind it.

(I know it's a minor point but it was the first thing that stood out straight away as a wtf/negative, everything else looks good)

I just see the 3d specs as representative of being able to look at things in depth from all angles.

It's funny... I'm getting a better readout than any other similar program I've used. :wub: Great job!

Fantasy is the celebration of what we no longer are: individuals certain of our meaningfulness in a meaningful world. The wish-fulfillment that distinguishes fantasy from other genres is not to be the all-conquering hero, but to live in a meaningful world. The fact that such worlds are enchanted worlds, worlds steeped in magic, simply demonstrates the severity of our contemporary crisis.

Warmth don't worry, it's only in beta.

I'm sure MrG will sort that out :)
