Fan Control is IMO a nicer and neater alternative to this application, since it is a single simple preference pane, and runs invisibly.

Is there a PPC/G4-5 version of this? Might be nice to have a low-rent solution to fan control when I game on my 12" PB when it's under a heavy load from WoW and Sims2.
