Cairo was never the codename for NT anyway, it was the codename for the Object Oriented File System microsoft was working on that was going to go into Win2k.
You are both right. Cairo was the codename of Windows NT 4.0, back in the days of WinNT 3.n (codenamed Daytona). However, it was later reused as the codename for a unified distributed filesystem.
Well, it's not that obvious. Take for example rechargeable batteries. They do not have any moving parts whatsoever, but still they do not last forever. In fact their lifespan is limited to several hundred chargings.
I wonder if it's not the same with this heatsink. Maybe they start to "wear out" after several (hundred, thousand) liquid-to-gas and gas-back-to-liquid cycles?
Does anyone know how long the typical lifespan of such a heatsink is? Would it survive longer than a typical fan-based heatsink? I run my boxes 24x7 and it seems that in a dusty environment - such as my appartment - all fans need to be replaced every year or so. This liquid-in-a-pipe concept seems like it might be a solution for my problem.
