[wplug] Building/Buying a Quieter Machine

[Luquilla Hughes]

If I remember correctly the apple cube was discontinued cause of some 
melting problems. Anyhow this was a concern of mine right about the time 
this (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/06/04/125259) slashdot article 
came out. I hope that helps. I also found some stuff on the quake3con page. 
not a quake player myself but they had some great machines there, including 
a liquid cooled one-if your brave.
