a bit of pollution for green
Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2009 6:49 pm
I really got sick of aerosol paints. The pc case can conquer alot of paint and materials deemed useless.
I opened up the two part urethane, stunk up my bathroom, made sure no sparks around and let my pc case have a few thick layers:
power consumption has no choice but to be down.
noise level is way down.
taking air from two sides of a sheet of steel with urethane is like making a very tough fuse box.
anything with bearings is going to last longer
I even urethaned the i/o shield. once upon a time, they used to be nonconductive. As most know today they are stainless lightning rods...
the fuse box is 20 years old and survived all of them....because of high grade urethane...
and ya know what else? it helps deter alphas from leaving solder in the first place, and if it does leave high stressed solders...urethane is where they stick degraded plutonium/uranium. It can sure as heck handle a pc...
why do we get tortured with badly painted pc cases claiming green, when in the short run that is all they last....? polluting, eating electricity, making noise, and becoming dangerous...?
because real materials have real chemistry and it supposedly bungs up the sky...someone and thier overgreen attitude is killing us, like a car that recycles its own exhaust....
