Aaron -

I was just posting my general comments, not trying to approach your arguments.  
Renaming ksysguard obviously doesn't change the app and is a relatively 
trivial matter.

As to whether or not ksysguard is relevant to the KDE 4 workspace, I think 
some sort of system monitor is called for.  I would hate to see that 
functionality gone from KDE.


Greg -

How about "ksysmonitor" or "ksysmon"?  The original ksysmon seems to be 
defunct; I can't find anything newer than 1997.  The author is listed with 
the app's announcement:
