How is everyone enjoying the summer? Or more importantly how are your computers handling it? My Mac pro shows a cool 31degC on one of my dual core chips in a room which is currently 23degC at 1.21am. Oddly it doesnt rise much even when the room hits almost 30degC during midday when the sun is beating down.

I always like to relax to a nice game of populous or ufo enemy unknown in the evenings, sat out in the garden under one of those umbrella things stuck into the table so I can see my little eee-pc's screen.

It's winter fool, silly people up North, tsk tsk tsk, though points for playing UFO: Enemy Unknown, quite possibly one of the best games ever made.

Still unusually cold and rainy here. I don't think there's been a single hot day this July. It's starting to freak me out. (normally it's 85+ most days in July, but the past few days it hasn't been above 70, and the weather's been hovering around there)

A mere 32 degrees here.

Provided, that's INDOORS! Angry

Eh, we have 47 degree days (celcius) in the Summer.. Very annoyingly hot.

Well, in my area, we had about 1-2 weeks of 90+ degree weather in early Agust but other than that temps have been steady in the early-late 70's early 80's.

Heh.
Keeping in mind that it is currently just gone into spring in aussieland, it was 38'C at my boyfriend's place the other day. It was still winter then.

Cool

We're headed into fall here.
