Temperature Monitor Widget Edition

The Temperature Monitor Widget Edition is a nifty application that functions as the Dashboard version of the popular Temperature Monitor software. If you're new to temperature sensors, it's suggested that you use Temperature Monitor first before utilizing the widget edition. Once you're familiar with the sensor equipment of your computer, you can enjoy the benefits of this application through its access to all the temperature readings used by Mac OS X for monitoring and cooling your device.

The widget is designed to display two temperature sensors selected by you, through your Dashboard. The readings retrieved by the sensors display in a neat and compact panel. Unlike other widgets, Temperature Monitor is very unique in that it can process hardware calibration data stored individually in each G5-based computer by Apple. It is one of the few applications that can show users the exact readings that Mac OS X uses for cooling, rather than guesses and approximations.
