OK, that's a good enough reason :)

I don't know how good my hardware is either :) The Intel mother board was
recommended as being very reliable and good value for money. The original
Intel power supply died quite soon, after a little more then a year. I don't
even know which make the current one is. Our local computer shop only had one
make and I can't get into town without help. What I like is that it hardly
makes any sound. The main reason I got lm_sensors was that I saw the name very
often in newsgroups and was just curious. But I like it a lot!

That makes sense. I'm not very technical, otherwise I mihght have thought of
it myself.

I believe you :)

It is.

I've got one, but found out that I don't have any working Dos boot diskettes
any more.

I won't bother...
