    THis will give you the ability to also control your fans natively in Windows. With older MBP you can use Input Remapper to adjust your fan speeds, with the newer UMBP you can't. This seems to be a work in progress, but I ma sur ethey will get it working like a charm.

    that'll be nice for Windows gamers... being a Mac gamer and Wine/Cider porter, I never game under Windows anymore... I probably spend more time lately working on things to help Windows games run in OSX more than actually playing games... but heck its fun.
