Existing users, 
There's no more admin password, but I'm still wondering why it needs an installer. Also, the English localization is pretty poor, it defaults to checking for updates on startup (I really wish applications asked me first), and it doesn't remember the temperature unit setting in the preferences between launches (I set it to Fahrenheit and it reverts to Celsius when restarting the app, but only in the preferences).
But it does seem to work without admin access this time.

I believe the installer is necessary because CDT installs the Speedit Kernel Extension for you, rather than having to use the terminal to do this. This is currently running okay on my MacBook 2.16 GHz model. At 10-20% useage I'm seeing 60C or 140F as read by CDT and iStat 2.0. I just opened about 10-15 programs at the same time including a .vob movie and let that play, I saw up to about 80% useage and about 170F CPU temps, so I would tend to think it's working okay, the fans came up to high speed just as they should. The temp seems normal for the useage.Saturday, August 04 2007 @ 02:53 PM PDT
