software based on mbp fan control guy: http://www.lobotomo.com/products/fancontrol/

better smcfancontrol because set , forget. ramp fans if temperature reaches set point , allows smc take on if you've set low (it sets *minimum* fan speeds smc can run fans at, smc still controls *actual* speed of fans, safe).

use @ own risk, yada yada yada.

feedback, great. however, there shouldn't bugs, throughly tested on last 6 hours :/.

have fun!

 

nice! it's not *just* lion, though... correct? can use in 10.6.8 replace old fan control?

noticed current 1 0.7, , there 1.2 out. heh. it's been great since installed in 2010 or whenever was.
