I second this recommendation. When all is said and done, the water cooling is actually gravy - the case on its own rocks.
A lesson from experience: Make sure you follow the Koolance instructions, and get yourself an appropriately sized funnel to fill the reservoir on the bottom. I was so impatient, I made cone out of paper. When the paper cone dissolved, I spent the next 15 mins. with a spray bottle injecting water into the reservoir.
The only problem I have with your argument is the assumption that US government pays to educate its citizens. The cost of a quality education in this country rests solely on the backs of its citizens (in the form of local and state tax, college tuition, and interest on college loans.)
In fact it's not uncommon for parents to feel the need to begin saving for college before their child is even born.
I'm not sure what your point is. Mine was simply that there isn't going to be enough (water) pressure exerted on the connections to cause the kind of leakage people are worried about. This doesn't mean other pressures won't cause leakage, e.g., running the tubing between a joint like the one between the screen and the notebook.
At the very worst you might have condensation as water vapor *slowly* seeps through connection points, but in all likelihood this isn't going to happen at rate fast enough cause problems - not to mention that even though we're talking about "cooling" the computer the temperatures involved will still be to hot for condensation to occur.
I was also simply pointing out that the water around air conditioners isn't due to leakage, but rather to condensation (maybe I should have said, "all", rather than "most... really now.)
The amount of energy involved in circulating water around a computer, and that involved in those devices differ enormously. The amount of pressure exerted on the connections will be nominal. Most of the water you see on air conditioners is condensation caused by the cooling of surrounding water in the air.
Why not? If the email account resides on platform that supports procmail, and you're merely accessing that mail account using Outlook, e.g., IMAP, then you can use procmail.
AFAIK a student's work belongs either to them or to the attended institution (or a combination of both).
I find it hard to believe that a teacher would have the authority to transfer ownership in either case without the explict consent of the institution or the student.
I could be wrong though.
Turntitin is more an example of how public institutions respond to exploding classroom sizes, than one of totalitarianism.
Your commentary on ethics and social freedom is contemptable at best. I don't have the time waste on it, but let me give you a hint: the Bill of Rights is a social contract (as is the rest of the Constitution.)
But, when Yahoo|Terra Lycos|MSN|AOL|Inktomi|Alta Vista put in a search result link to websites that that have paid to be listed first, you don't know if it's a "real" result, or if someone has paid to put it their.
This practice is only troublesome if you pre-suppose a few things:
first, that the majority of search engine users actually understand the underlying basis for a particular search engine's results,
and secondly, that the users choose a search engine to use based on this knowledge.
I suspect that most people prefer to use a search engine which has, historically, given them results they find useful. I'm also pretty sure they don't care how the results of a particular search are obtained, only that they are useful.
A search engine is a utility, not an altar on which we sacrifice virgins in the name of all that is good and noble in the universe.

Is the system completely integrated with the company's back-end software? Hmmm ....

Most diseases are NOT cured, rather the 'vectors' that allow a disease into a population are eliminated (managed).
