Has anybody else noticed that Xbox's pump out heat like they're designed for the task? Good for the winter, but in summer, they're hell.
Gamecubes are also really good "space heaters".
Come to think of it, so are really fat cats.
But seriously, I guess that with ever-increasing CPU power in consoles, the heat issue isn't going to change anytime soon.

When they introduce processors that use laser waveguides instead of electronic pulses, we'll see the end of the cooling system.

If that's true, then I can't wait.

I can't believe I never posted here... What I use to have all my systems hooked up is a TV with two AV jacks and 1 multi-selector... It has had quite alot of use out of it. You can pick up a cheap one at wallymart for about $20.

I recently got an AV multi-selector box and it works pretty well. I always wanted one of the eight-input ones, though. Mine's only got four.
