That is really impressive and smooth looking.  I don't see any practicality
in it right now, though.

That last one doesn't seem to add anything useful with the modified GUI...
kind of silly. The bb4.com one however isn't all that bad, take page 8 for
example, that gives me lots of info that may be very useful (page
faults/second, cache hits/second), I can't find that stuff on my hobbit
server atm (and certainly not in such a orderly fashion on only one page).

It's the core functionality I really care about. As long as the GUI isn't
stopping me from doing usefull stuff (for example, not allowing me to edit
config files manually anymore or adding custom scripts), I don't see the
problem.

That said, I am however happy to stick with xymon. If bb4 has a nice
feature, just nick the idea and do it the xymon way!:)

I was mostly talking about the interface to it - I find it way too busy.

BBwin is the best thing you have today for Windows Xymon clients.  Not sure
if it tells you about the faults or cache hits/second but a script should be
capable of being written...

Seems a lot like Nagios...too busy...but at least they mostly stuck with
the format. They just added some flash (no pun intended).
