Determine RAM and CPU usage

I think the question title explains itself.  How can I get the current CPU utilization (as a percent) and the RAM usage (also as a percent) in VB.net?  Tks

Use the free download from Microsoft, called Managament Extensions for VS.NET.  It gives you access to WMI, and two of the tabs are memory and processor.

The download link is http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=6430F853-1120-48DB-8CC5-F2ABDC3ED314&displaylang=en

There is more info about this add-in here:
