Sigh, WTF happened to all the lessons learned about thermal design
and cooling problems during the Space Race? It's as if everyone
has suddenly decided that "Gee, it has integrated circuits;
how can it get warm?" is the rule of the day.
To date, no one has downsized the watt... and if you need a 300
watt supply, it's gotta go somewhere. It's as if they all took
the IBM Baco Raton School of Thermal Design course...
Jason has the right idea; but made BOTH the design team, and the
marketing droids SIT on the box during the demo.....
