Duct tape server II gets proudly introduced

Don't deny it -- you totally blew the original Duct Tape Server off as some one-off project created after a hard night of truth or dare, but the DTS team is out to prove that this here is no fad. Just this week the DTS II (that's Duct Tape Server II for those who prefer things broken down) was introduced shortly after DTS I came unglued. Reportedly, this unit will be on server row at MillionManLan and will pack a 2.2GHz Pentium 4, 1GB of RAM, an 80GB hard drive and a few fans to keep things breezy. Hit up the read link for a slew of build shots, and click on through for a quick video.

It seriously took me like 5 minutes to figure out what the letters on
the side meant.. I was like "TBT, EOA, AOP, MME?" Is that a vision
chart or some new way of displaying specs? wtf? And I probably posted this twice (. )( .) Is there a remedial
version of Engadget available for people with my needs?

So is duct tape fire proof ? can't say i'd be very confident leaving a server running 24/7 in a potentially meltable case that would burn my flat down and kill my cats .....

Prof.X here, I saw we had some questions/statements regarding the thermal issues of the DTS2

DTS2 ran for 4 days straight and had no thermal issues, In fact I think due in large part to both the volume of the new case and the 120mm fan in the front the thermal peaks in all three areas rarely made it over 31c with an average of 28c.

We'll keep you guys up to date on any DTS developments.
