Just out of curiosity, isn't a MiniGoose with 3 external sensors ( ~ $250 ) worth less than an afternoon of your time? http://www.itwatchdogs.com/MiniGooseDSheet.htm (I don't work for itwatchdogs, just the "cheap temp sensor at hand" kind of query) Don't get me wrong, I like to make my own stuff. But I also prefer to balance my time against the cost, and itwatchdogs stuff is cheap enough to allow me to not waste time... -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
