iStat Nano - OS X Widget of the Day

by Emily Price (RSS feed) Feb 7th 2007 at 6:20PM

Do you ever wonder how fast the fans in your Mac are going?

Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
