Looks good. Installed it and tested it out. When i click on one of the buttons on the system information page my webrowser (chrome) opens, so far so good, but the lite control center screen goes grey then. It stays grey until i close chrome. When i open chrome manually this doesnt happen.
I guess the translation into different languages will be done later?

@Trip, how's this?

Not sure if the Internet IP Address is a good idea though. The screenshot tool is used as support for people, they may forget to grey out their ip address. Seems like we'd be putting people at risk and also asking them to do more than they should be doing.

Good idea to roll up control items into a new control panel, particularly the Software items. I was always selecting the wrong one from the Menu when I was a new user.
The main point I'd make is the Desktop view doesn't seem quite right.
It includes both the Add and Remove option for several common icons, and presents those option irrespective of whether the icon is already installed or not. Plus the options appear to be randomly distributed.
Perhaps a better idea might be to firstly group the options then use a tick box to indicate install, which would also reflects the current status.
I know you believe you understand what you think I said. But I'm not sure you realise that what you heard is not what I meant.

Looks really good. Detects all my hardware and works smooth. But when I click on a button in the software tab the selected application opens up fine but the control center window turns blank until the chosen application is closed.

Nice! I have had no issues, everything seems to work as expected. Only one small suggestion, maybe a button to launch "hardinfo" on the system overview page marked as full system info. Other than that everything looks great so far. Outstanding job to the team.

All working fine, i5 Laptop.
Just echo the comments on:
Memory, indicates 15GB vs 16GB, possibly because it takes in account the reserved ram for graphics.??
Add/Remove options, placement, bit OCD, but I agree
Great work guys...
