That's good, pretend I said something I didn't. I'm bagging the whole concept, not your boner for stirling engines. Faked free energy is still faked.

It seems pretty obvious that if the CPU can safely reach the kinds of temperatures to drive a fan at anywhere near normal fan speeds, you might as well get rid of the fan.

The key point here is that energy is lost along the way to friction, inefficient heat capture, etc. at a high rate. Hence the fan being useless showy guff.

Yeah, because spinning once or twice every ten seconds is going to help. Or perhaps I'm forgetting The Magic Of the Stirling Engine and Free Energy.

It's rubbish.

The main point here is heat is being removed and turned into mechanical energy, you might as well remove the fan.

Unfortunately I find it hard to believe the process is anything more than a gimmicky. It's a giant mechanical heatsink with a novelty fan on it.

The Oh-My-Bod iPod 'implant' goes somewhere else entirely. In fact, you have options.

This is the sort of thing where you wait for it to be *good* before doing it. Good meaning painless, reversible, simple and feature-rich.

Please come back when application is as simple as sprinkling some magic dust on your arm.

Rofl pwnt.

That was a fairly calm and reasonable response, considering. Nobody is suing anyone and nobody was arrested.

Nothing says Beat Me Up like going to the skate park with a dinky skateboard.

You've hit the nail on the head unfortunately. It's a gigantic ego-stunt for Negroponte.
