My thoughts too. The reason I'm unsure is that after looking at several pre-built machines, half of the rear fans are blowing inward. I have an old Prosignia with the rear fan blowing inward, and there are a series of clear plastic baffles directing the airflow over the CPU card. I've also noticed that dust bunnies breed in the rarely-used CDROM drive of one of my servers. It has the rear fans blowing out and the front fan blowing in.
