I remember taking an old Dell apart several years ago, it was
admittedly
a
p2-200 and being stunned at the *HUGE* passive heatsink it had cooling
the
CPU, which was barely above room temp. It only had a single small fan
in
the
PSU.

I've always wondered why some company can't make a *HUGE* passive
retrofit
heatsink for ?40-50, I'm sure they'd flog loads of 'em!
