[plug] low heat & low noise linux box for firewall?

[Hook]

I can't help you I'm afraid Daniel, but I'd be interested in any comments
that anyone can make about quiet PC cases in general. I'm interested in
putting together a PVR, and one of the things I'm not very impressed by is
the noise level of most PCs.

Does anyone have any helpful comments?
