Fan Recommendation

Ok Gang here it is... Want to make you unixpc create less noise.

As it turns out the leading edge of the fan blades on the 
unix pc (normal fans) pass VERY close to the plastic grate.
This allows the noise to come into the room rather than going
out the inside (honest)  I noticed a very SIGNIFICANT decrease
in noise level just by making a box for the outlet holes and
taping it in place.  Try it, it takes about 5 minutes.  Mine
is perfectly square, made from old punch cards and duct tape.
(its on the back, it doesn't need to be beautiful)  And it
really really works.  


Let us know if you try it, and like it.
