Backlit Keyboard CPU Load Monitor

After linking to Amit Singh’s example code for controlling the keyboard backlighting on Mac notebooks, I asked how long it would take until someone used it to write a CPU monitor. The answer? About a day, thanks to this hack from Matthew Butch.

Works as advertised on my 15-inch PowerBook.
