dry-ice/ethanol??? Wouldn't be kind enough to post a link to that particular

Curious and somewhat bedazzled,

;) I have no photos although it keeps locking up so for today there's
another litre of nitrogen living under my desk.

But /. has seen plenty of nitrogen cooled PCs before. Never to get a
system working normally, always for overclocking.

And generally not just sitting in a foam cup ;)

not worth it, I've done funnier things that did make it on /. so now I
can rest ;)

Anyone remember the dry-ice/ethanol cooled PC? Foam box with motherboard
in a plastic bag dipped in the slurry? That was me plus friends.
