In *partial* defence of the built-in temperature monitor -- 1" is not the CPU itself (it's probably higher ;). For me, GaugePRO seems to report a reasonable CPU temperature (along the lines of your probe). Is it possible that some CPUs aren't properly calibrated? PS Stewart, what CPU are you running G3, G4, clocked, what sort of caches? > At the moment, Gauge Pro reports CPU temp 80 F, and Thermograph reports > 82 F > I have a hard time believing that the CPU temp. is only 1-2 degrees > above room temp... I love it when I see people report CPU temperatures *below* RT. Eric. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
