Ali,

Re: "The term "with active cooling" was repeated twice

Ali ... A "fan" is active cooling, I don't care how many times the
Register repeats it. It kinda like your "architecture thingy" ... Just
because you repeat it again and again doesn't "make it so". <ggg>

Make It So,

Ali Re <<but formally "fan" cooling is called "forced air" technology, and "active cooling" was always reserved for
thermoelectric technology.>>

I don't think so.

"Forced convection" is active cooling. "Free (or natural) convection is passive cooling.

So a fan is definitely an active cooling device.
