Select a Widget and hit Command+R and sit back and watch.
That is cool.

That is cool. If you hold it down you can get it to do it a couple of times before it freaks out and disappears.

All as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as Love.

Hmm.. Interesting, but clearly buggy.. Tried it on my G5 iMac, and the 1st couple of times I tried it, the entire screen freaked out, kind of like that photoshop pixilated bit shift effect. But then it seemed to work as it should.
Then tried it on my G4 powerbook, and the widget just vanished. Opened dashboard again, and dashboard quit with an error and had to be re-launched.

The worst thing about having a failing memory is..... no, it's gone.

all those widget are actually little safari windows + core image effect.... when u press command + r is just the same as command + r on safari (reload page), the only difference is dashboard applied core image effect with the page reload
edit: forgot to say my point, so what's buggy is the core image, and quartz, if you have xcode installed, try run quartz debugger, you will see the quartz 2d extreme is not even enabled by default, which means it must have some serious bugs with it, hope apple can improve it in the next release

Very cool. And people thought the ripple was a bit too much . I haven't managed to crash it with this. I've even just tried it on the calculator widget dragged out onto the desktop - even that works!
