MS now just has to make an OS worthy of this.  Cruddy 8/8.1 certainly aren't.

Be nice when they make a complete desktop PC that needs no cooling, but I am sure it will be a while on that.

Don't worry. Quantum computing, isolinear chips, and optical data interfaces are just around the corner.

My first Intel PC had no fan....and so did my second.....and third....

I remember when there was an article about the first PCs to need fans.

I don`t hope they will simplify the relatively old but not bad i386/i686  architecture for these pcs. 

arm devices are so slow, and there wont change a higher cpu much (they do require not so much cooling normally and do save energy)

It's the SlenderChip!  Run!  Save yours-

Any PC can be passively cooled if you have a heatsink big enough or are willing to sacrifice performance for it.

That must have been the last millenia like 1999 or so?

Would have been quite a while before then...

Would be interesting to know which OS'es where actual that time. DOS 1.0/3.0 or even before???.

The first system i used was win 95, then win3.11 ( better), then dos6.22 ( ten ways better than w9k) and then ME ( Mist( Garbage/Trash) ) Edition) . After that failures i switched to linux and now i do use win7 ( tested w2k/xp a bit too) and linux.

Did Pcs with GEM GUI have fans ( im just curious)??

That makes two of us.

TIP........ Buy a Mac. They blow harder.

But Macs use Intel CPUs...

I was never a fan of a Mac either...lol. Just giving you shit, Kona. Have some fun.
