  1. Re:What are you smoking? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Melamine Ceiling Tiles and the Quiet PC
    Ive seen people complain to the store about their PC getting more noisy after this modification so its obvious not as incredible as the reviewer here wanto make us belive.

    But a cheap noisekiller that take care of all the CPUs frequencies I'd love to check out, I've "wrapped" them in twice with some Magic Fleece and i can only hear them seek, barely. Oh and before you scold me, their watercooled, around 37-40c.

    two radiators with 12cm fans outside the case cools everything. Their inaudible since I chose the slowest pabst fans and a couple of 100 ohm resistor. Expensive but it looks nice and is really easy to set up.

  2. Plastic just like the Mac by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on World's Smallest Desktop Pentium4?
    I've seen it up-close and personal in a store (yes the actually had a sample, those cheap bastards) and it drew me over like a nice Cooler Master case usually does. But lo, it was plastic and it felt cheap.

    Of all cases nothing can beat a nice cooler master.

    Now no-one feel they need to buy anything.

    However i usually buy a program if I find it very useful, like trillian and mailwasher. Trillian pro is easy to get and after testing it out for a about two months I bought it. I dont think id buy it if Id only test the freeware version which imo is butt ugly and bloated-looking.

    a little OT
    Trillian pro is small (square not rounded corners like ICQ "Lite!"), beautiful (whistler like skin), and excellent chat history function that actually works compared to buggy ICQ lite. Check more HERE

    Mailwasher saves me a lot of time going through/identifying and deleting spam, Im an annoying beta tester for their CFS system now and it looks extremely promising if they fix and add some serious issues. Extremely as in getting me very efficient and only bothered (email notification beep) when I get mail not identified as spam. (Also blinking tray icon and max/min animation you cant turn off is extremely annoying and slowing me down BAD MAILWASHER BAD!)
