The program is well-thought out; for example, if you have a multi-core CPU, it shows you the usage of each core individually. Considering that Performance Monitor is free, if you have a need for a system monitor, it's certainly worth the download.
Note: When I used this program under Windows Vista, I received an error message when it launched. However, the program worked without any problems, despite the message.
