and aren't you worried about burglars posting pictures of that chair on the net (Well at least me) ;-) Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.
Good catch!
As for the chair--it isn't worth much to anyone not my size. Of course, a burgler wouldn't necessarily know that. "Remember the I35W bridge--who needs terrorists when there are Republicans"
as for the cooling problem, can you vent the heat produced into the walls? or out through the floor, build yourself some underfloor heating using some form of exhaust venting? Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.
it would of course mean cutting the mounting hole in your desk. Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.
My G4 has a pretty noisy fan but it is nothing compared to the late G4s that were called "wind tunnels" by their critics. Apple actually put a version of my CPU in a laptop. But I have three hard drives and I assume heat is probably a bad thing for electrical componets (I still remember tubes) so I am being careful. I'll probably over-engineer something, if the past is a guide. "Remember the I35W bridge--who needs terrorists when there are Republicans"

To get an efficient PC first thing you'll need an efficient power supply (PSU) and that means building your own PC since no brand name PC uses a really good PSU. By good here means high power efficiency meaning both lower elctrivity bill and less useless heat to evacuate hence more silent PC so every percent count :).
