  Network Wizards today introduced the WizTemp-2 RS-232 based
  temperature sensor.  This second generation sensor is ideal for
  machine-room and environmental temperating monitor applications.

  The new unit is packaged in an RS-232 connector shell, and includes a
  temperature sensor with a 12' monitoring probe.  Software, including
  source code, is available for most Unix systems.  The software
  includes a daemon to monitor and record the temperature, and activate
  user-configurable alarms when abnormal conditions are detected.
  Additional functions include programs to print or display daily
  temperature graphs on terminals, PostScript printers, and X windows.
  The price for one sensor starts at $179.  Contact Network Wizards at
