Hmmm... my netbook is totally silent and right next to me. I can attach
it to a near-silent USB disk in my hi-fi rack (3 metres away) and
because it is 3 metres away I can't hear it at all...

If I run Foobar (or similar) on the netbook...

I'm weird - I like the SBS web UI and that's why I have the netbook
next to me. It's the only way I control my Touch.
