>> Might as well spend ~7K for Kryrotech (think spelled correctly) and cool down to ~0 Degrees Kelvin. Now, Networm. Speaking as a physicist (I was trained as a physicist at an early age before I knew I was a computer guy), come again? If you have a way to cool the case to 0 Kelvin (that is, absolute zero) then (a) you have rewritten all the laws of thermodynamics, (b) you have solved all of the world's superconducting problems, and (c) you have a commercial bombshell on your hands and I Want In! BTW, liquid Helium goes superconducting at 4 degrees Kelvin, not to mention exhibiting macroscopic quantum effects, which are downright eerie, such as flowing up and out over the edges of a container just because there's a probability it could be on the outside. Who needs TV with these thoughts for entertainment, eh? Or perhaps it was 0 Celsius or, as we old guys would say, Centigrade (i.e., freezing, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the most sensible scale of them all)? <GGG> Regards, Spots
