I am impressed but I will never do that. Maybe an idea to patent this while you can? I see microsoft making up a solution right now.

Best example of "Covalent Compounds Don't Conduct Electricity" ever!

Would also work with PURE water if the pesky stuff didn't dissolve oxygen so well.

But if a really little bit of impurity fell in the water you'd go boom.

Yes, let's go.

I'm seeing two...nay three drawbacks.

1) Accidental leaks
2) The oil will get all sorts of nastiness stuck in it.
3) What happens when you want to upgrade?

theres obviously lots of drawbacks but this is the kinda thing geeks do when they've already made more than enough money to have all the computeriffic toys they could ever want and are bored

ive seen vids from either the same crew or similar ppl doing stupid overclocking things whilst having the computer suspended in some kinda subzero setup
