Umm, yeah, this would have been fairly obvious. <G> The CPU is way on
the other side of the case, and no cables near it. It is fairly well
laid out, except a few ISA slots can't be gotten to without first
removing the power supply, and some harddrive screws are hidden
behind bits of metal. [slimline case, not unlike some Gateways]

I've had it on for about 20 hours now, and there's no change...

Yes, and with 16 megs of RAM, thats more than the rest my computers'
RAMs put together. :)
