Definately a pool/airhockey/table football combo type thing, for the kids you understand.
Aircon, no - generating heat to remove heat? That's just not right.
Open window and big fan, more than likely.
As regards the upsizing temptation I think I have planned a sustainable boinc farming cycle that will keep me current without getting out of hand
Spring: Review the farm and gradually retire the 2 least efficient beasts (out of 6) & sell them on.
Summer: Above process reaches a conclusion with all but the 4 most productive machines silent & ebayed.
Autumn: Rebuild time, this is sort of nature in reverse, with 2 new state of the art crunchers joining the stable ready to warm the house through...
Winter: When it's full steam ahead again.
And so on until the end of Boinc.

Call me an abuser of power but I'll locking this thread, the title of which is 2 digits off the pace. I shall open another one extolling the virtues of the ubernewbie.
