[QUOTE]Originally posted by Baloo: [QB] Actually, there [i]are[/i] small refrigerators available. The military of late has actually been putting them in the dorms (well, the Air Force, anyhow). If you buy one new, it could cost up to... well, I forget. I've seen new ones on sale for less than $175. If your computer will fit (a tower would fit better than the other kind), you could cut a pass-through in the door for the cables and stuff it with foam to keep the cold in. This would avoid the possibility of accidentally puncturing the refrigerant lines. Home-use refrigerators don't run refrigerant through the door. Alternatively, you could enclose the computer in an insulated box. Then you could put ducts on the refrigerator door to pipe cold air to/from the computer enclosure. Install a fan in one and you have a recirculating system. Use dryer ducting to route the cold air to/from the computer (it's cheap and easily available). It should not be impossible to find a way to keep the computer cool. I favor the Rube-Goldberg solutions mentioned above, but I get the impression that you aren't stupid and will come up with something cost-effective. --Baloo [/QB][/QUOTE]
