This will hard set your CPU frequency to whatever you choose. Specify
something lower than 340, and you will generate less heat. I would
say something in the 2.5Ghz range should be good, and will still be
faster than what happens when the process
bandwidth. Really can't be beat for this, at the
moment. Very useful in specific cases, mostly involving video.
Very costly in power consumption and heat production.
Intel's compiler fairly cheap - approx. $600. Free for

favorite hardware failure tips:
1) Overheating (check fans, temperature, this includes MOBO, CPU, HD
and Video card, memory too, because most of the other stuff doesn't
heat that much).
2) Power supply, make sure your PS can provide what's necessary for

The first qcalc is described as

...so since "T-Mobile" is involved it seems an app. Chances are very
small, that this a "nerds only" application, who run a linux
commandline on their phones... :)
The second qcalc is a link to a german company, which build radiator
