Jun 2nd 2008 9:33AM Those panels will benefit the water level, by trapping the heat and then re-radiating it above the water, preventing a lot of evaporation due to the thermal input. Normally the water would absorb the heat and evaporate as a result.
z0phi3l - you need to re-read your physics textbook. The panels won't absorb any more heat than the water below them would have if they weren't there.

Systemax salvages CompUSA brand, website, and up to 16 stores {Engadget}
Jan 7th 2008 9:02AM Goodbye, good riddance, stay away and don't come back. I started a personal boycott of CompUSA 5 years ago after (yet another) rebate didn't appear in my mailbox, and I was quite happy to hear of their soon-to-be-demise. I was just as happy to take some merchandise off their hands once their clearance sale started. The discounts don't begin to make up for the missing rebates, but it was a start.

Oct 16th 2007 10:25AM I think I'll stick with a HTC Advantage X7501 as my next ultraportable+phone. Slightly smaller screen, but that allows you to keep it on you all the time. Better battery life (8+hours), EDGE/3G so you don't need to be near a Wifi hotspot, instant on...
