Guess you you re-purpose your clothes dryer vent hose ;)
That's what I did for my computer... reversed all the fans so the airflow went out the back, then used a short length to connect the back fan to my attic. Take a one-way flapper valve, remove the flapper and one end of the tube, and you have something that perfectly fits (screw holes and all) onto a 120mm fan. A quick-disconnect fitting on the wall to the attic makes it trivial to remove the computer from its location.
That plus a ginormous passive CPU heatsink (which is right up against the relevant rear case fan) solved both the waste heat and noise problems I had.
As for fume removal, one of these days I'm going to get that solved with the same basic approach, although that will go through to the outside rather than the attic. Main thing I haven't figured out yet is the best way to build a fume hood for the toaster itself.
