+I teared the notifier apart and placed the notifier's board inside my home server.
+Due to its size, the RGB LED creates some interesting optical effects if you place it 2-4cm
+from the venting holes.
+
+Here are some simple scripts that use various data to set the LED's color.
+
+
+
+### mled-discomode ###
+
+This script simply cycles through all available colors. I called it disco mode due to the optical
+phenomena that take place as the light crosses the air vents.
+
+
+### mled-cputemp ###
+
+This script works really well for my machine. It uses the `sensors` program to get the CPU
+temperature.
+
+If the CPU is at or under the low threshold, the LED turns blue. If it is at or
+above the high threshold, the LED turns red. If it is in the middle, it gets green.
+
+It is actually very informative for the machine's state. You can easily detect CPU load.
