I'd have a look at <a href="http://www.ipi.fi/~rainy/index.php?pn=projects&project=rainlendar">Rainlendar</a>. I use it and it's a Godsend. You won't notice a hit on your computer's performance, it loads on startup in the blink of an eye and sits quietly on your desktop/system tray without you having to open up a program. Having to open the calendar and reminders sorta defeats the purpose of them always being there.
I use it and I'd be lost without it. My current skin is called 'simplenote' and it's clean, simple, unobtrusive, everything good.
