  There are "fans" and there are "FANS"!

  I just replaced my main computer which sounded like a vacuum
  cleaner when it was running with a brand-new (expensive) Dell
  Professional with four - count 'em - four fans and I can't
  hear them at all. Hard to tell that the machine is turned on.
  Ditto for the HP laptop that I use with my K2 for digital
  stuff.

  The only real "fan noise" is the auxiliary fan that I mounted
  on top of the K2 that's controlled by the PTT circuit so it's
  not going continuously.  Now that one is loud......
