Thanks for the heads up Thamar. So basicly, to not create condensation Jabba should do what stergiopilus and Rukee said + get a mini-fridge big enough to put his puter in + wireless externals evrything. At this point i'd consider cleaning up with compress air hassle a bargain.

Currently looking at converting it to an air cooled system.
well, jabba... when converting, i will most highly recomend using these brand heatsinks... they are quite acurately, the best air cooling solution available, and i have been running for two years now quite happily
the updated design allows for greater air velocities, and a higher rate of heat soak... so quieter fans, and greater cooling
you wont likely hit those 600mhz clock speeds... but cirtainly half that with no problem, i think.

Yeah that does seem fairly stupid that savrow can't take the blame for it, or at least should've done some testing to make sure this kind of thing doesen't happen. Most people i've spoken to have had their problems solved by savrow but this seems to be a very big and very expensive exception.

I think you should post something about it in their client feedback forum to let others know about it.....
