Nope, that my primary linux system but I will do the same on the Pi if I get 
noise issues.
Then it will be the issue of finding a very baby case that has suitable fan 
slots/holes etc but if that happens
I will consider putting in a baby modular psu then I can increase the Pi board 
count with ease creating a real
quad core system having changed the Linux job scheduler to multi box mode a la 
JES3.


How ever I hope that the need will not arise as my Pi uses heat conductors on 
both chips but it is still warm!

Must work out how to check the temps - assuming there is an internal chip 
componenet that does it.

There again it is a very mobo with a very low chip count and capability.
