(And yup on the fleas)

Makes brain hurt. I can see all the possible approaches, then cost/benefit rears ugly head. What stops me from experimenting much is - while I have enough test equipment around, not a passel of accurate temp monitors (which I think is only sane way to vet some mod). Another time-sink :(

Wouldn't have taken much for mfgs. to mount most fans w/ elastomers by now - lots of the sound energy is screwed directly to the case! I'll play a bit with my junk-box of Si-rubber pieces and such. Hmmm - mount with 4 dabs of RTV (room-temp vulcanizing stuff) Fans are light.

Thanks for the intro to the Quiet Kewl Ones..
