I've got the nozzle of a wet/dry vac duct-taped to the fan vent of my amiga
and a gasoline powered leaf blower (the electrical one kept tripping my UPS)
roped to the back of a chair and blowing into the card air intake. I have
to keep weights on any papers, and it gets a little noisy when I'm animating.
I once found a screw and a resistor in the vac's tank, but the computer still
seems to work. Also I've solved the noise problem with airport quality ear
protectors. :)
NO, NOT REALLY, actually I use a small desk fan pointing into the card air
intake, seems to work well at keeping the PAR cool. If anyone tries this be
sure that the airflow doesn't push against the anemic amiga fan. I also have
an additional power supply fan in the box pointing at the hard drives.
