I have no problem with losing bigClock.conf by default, that's purely my preference. I tend to leave the screens on all the time and it's nice to look up for the time without searching for it.
I would like to see a shortcut conky, though. Something like this?
Adjust as necessary...

## Bunsenlabs User config files
## All default BunsenLabs user config files are located in /usr/share/bunsen/skel.
## The script bl-user-setup copies them to the user $HOME directory on first login.

-edit- added "Alt + Tab Switch" to the window shortcuts.
I don't care what you do at home. Would you care to explain?

Drop system info? Could work.

Agreed the list of shortcuts is pretty useful. I still use it sometimes.
It's a compromise between appearance and functionality here, and I think @hhh's suggestion strikes a good balance.
Any smaller, and the conky might be getting difficult to read...

Also you don't want the conky to get too big or it may get cut off on smaller screens like on laptops and netbooks.

I think this is unlikely, since the conky adjusts to the display size. Besides, the font is exactly in the frame.
Additionally, it would also be possible to make the conky dynamic by 00.
So
minimum_width = 00, minimum_height = 00,-- width | height
maximum_width = 00,

Oh that's good to know, thanks.
