What wire in the computer (except those directly from the p/s) carries
enough current to send a person to the hospital? Failing that, why would
there be an unshielded wire in there that could carry that much current
anyway? I'd think electric interferance right away....

This could possibly work, and some people put "blowholes" onto their
computer cases...

Right now I have 1 computer in its tower with the case off, another with the
case on - which always runs warm, and I have a computer that doesn't have a
case at all - just a p/s, motherboard, etc...mounted on a motherboard tray
taken from a case. I think that the system without the case is the coolest.

You can see which side I'm leaning on...
