I once took an old VCR, ripped the guts out, and turned it into a media PC.
Worked quite well, and was 100% fanless and silent. Of course, it was
quite low spec to go fanless, but with some clever thinking, a bit of
cardboard and sticky-backed plastic, you can make a fan-driven system very
quiet, if not silent.
Cheers,
Andy
