New Dual System PC

An anonymous reader writes "ExtremeMhz.com has released an article on how they designed and built a PC containing dual systems. One system is a supercooled Intel and the other is a water chilled AMD. This PC features Dual SCSI storage subsytems also. Looks like some crazy stuff." Now if only they could put a mac and a PC in one case ;)

    At first, Laurie couldn't decide which kind of tea she wanted. The
    camomile, which used to be her favorite for lazy evenings at home, now
    reminded her too much of Carl, who once said, in happier times, that he
    liked camomile. But she felt she must now, at all costs, keep her mind
    off Carl. His possessiveness was suffocating, and if she thought about
    him too much her asthma started acting up again. So camomile was out
    of the question.

    Meanwhile, Advance Sergeant Carl Harris, leader of the attack
    squadron now in orbit over Skylon 4, had more important things to think
    about than the neuroses of an air-headed asthmatic bimbo named Laurie
    with whom he had spent one sweaty night over a year ago. "A.S. Harris
    to Geostation 17," he said into his transgalactic communicator. "Polar
    orbit established. No sign of resistance so far..." But before he
    could sign off a bluish particle beam flashed out of nowhere and blasted a
    hole through his ship's cargo bay. The jolt from the direct hit sent
    him flying out of his seat and across the cockpit.

    He bumped his head and died almost immediately, but not before he
    felt one last pang of regret for psychically brutalizing the one woman
    who had ever had feelings for him. Soon afterwards, Earth stopped its
    pointless hostilities towards the peaceful farmers of Skylon 4.
    "Congress Passes Law Permanently Abolishing War and Space Travel."
    Laurie read in her newspaper one morning. The news simultaneously
    excited her and bored her. She stared out the window, dreaming of her
    youth -- when the days had passed unhurriedly and carefree, with
    no newspapers to read, no television to distract her from her sense of
    innocent wonder at all the beautiful things around her. "Why must one
    lose one's innocence to become a woman?" she pondered wistfully.

    Little did she know, but she has less than 10 seconds to live.
    Thousands of miles above the city, the Anu'udrian mothership launched
    the first of its lithium fusion missiles. The dim-witted wimpy
    peaceniks who pushed the Unilateral Aerospace Disarmament Treaty
    through Congress had left Earth a defenseless target for the hostile alien
    empires who were determined to destroy the human race. Within two
    hours after the passage of the treaty the Anu'udrian ships were on course for
    Earth, carrying enough firepower to pulverize the entire planet. With
    no one to stop them, they swiftly initiated their diabolical plan. The
    lithium fusion missile entered the atmosphere unimpeded. The
    President,in his top-secret mobile submarine headquarters on the ocean
    floor off the coast of Guam, felt the inconceivably massive explosion which
    vaporized Laurie and 85 million other Americans. The President slammed
    his fist on the conference table. "We can't allow this! I'm going to
    veto that treaty! Let's blow'em out of the sky!"
