Something I just thought of while looking at Rainmeter again: why not have an LCD screen act like a 2nd monitor to display PC temps?
A small serial LCD screen, like maybe this: http://www.hobbytronics.co.uk/tft-serial-display-18 plugged into my Saberkittiy's COM1 port displaying a HWMonitor screen.
I think what I want to do is very similar (if not the same) as having a Raspberry Pi become a gaming emulator and output video to an LCD. I have an Rpi B+ sitting here if need be.
This would be so cool if it can be done, I could mount that little 2" screen to the side of my case and at a glance, always know my temps!
I just don't know where to start... Maybe someone has done a project very similar with an LCD and a Raspberry Pi?
