I found this "Computer Humidity-Temperature calculator at the thrift store.
While I have had a lot of trouble with my current HP Pavilion Laptop overheating (causing the video driver to fail…not just once, but three times) I don’t know how to use this gadget to calculate my overheating risks. It just looks cool.
Somewhere I have a pica wheel that converts inches to picas, a unit used in typesetting back in the old, old days of the 1970s and 1980s. I do know how to use that because I worked for years as a copy editor.
Direct scan from my personal collection.
