Picturesque circuitry

Lately my sff (small form factor) computer has become really cranky…producing a lot of noise and heats up very quickly! It will make a scene when I play a video, edit an image or land on a page heavy on flash. If only I could capture all that heat and have it power another appliance, say a blowing fan.

Maybe it’s time to change (I hope not) but for the time being hub has removed the cover to help cool it down and that has certainly restored some peace and quiet.

So everyday I take a look at the open unit, wonder what’s going on, marvel at the picturesque environment and do some dusting.

   you opened the computer hardware? me - i’ll be screaming for a technician to settle the problem, but can be a real pain when the pc goes bonkers, so hope it’ll get well soon

   Hello Clara, thanks for visiting, coming from Dear M Kate, i am pleased to discover your blog.
   Never, never I will open my computer, it seems to me like an Alien so strange to my world that I would be scared to have a closer look at it! But it is a very colourfull alien indeed.
