The sound will also end up as heat in the end. The same goes for light. Hence my "disclaimer" in the end, stating that you need a sound and light insulated house. However, I think there are very little energy in the sound and light of a computer, relatively speaking. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
