The designs are already dancing in my mind. :)

Of course, this would probably be pure overkill.

I have always been a fan of the totally submerged machine. Design a waterproof case, put the mobo etc inside, and then fill it up with silicone oil. That should transfer heat to the case to be radiated off the outside of the case much more efficiently. Especially for something like an appliance which you won't be opening up often. I am really tired of squealing and dying fans. I had to replace the power supply in my desktop at work just yesterday because the fan died. My home workstation has already had the case fan replaced once and now needs a new chipset fan. No moving air would be great. Less noise, less moving parts to fail.
