Swaying CPU Fans

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the floating-in-the-breeze dept.

Vindi submitted a New Scientist story about a CPU fan that flaps in the breeze. 2cm metal or polyester fan blades, and use less power then a traditional rotary fan. They move less air then the traditional fan, but for laptops, using 99% less power can't hurt. Update Hey its a duplicate from saturday! Guess I shouldn't post while planning my trek to see LotR tomorrow. Go ahead, flame on.

    Slashdot covered an almost identical article a few days ago here.

      And at the same time, they're ignoring submissions about FBI trying to get hold of the Badtrans keylogs.

      Figures.

    I have a strange feeling of having read this story somehwere before on Slashdot. I must go see my shrink, It must be me because I just know Slashdot would never duplicate their stories....
