I took the fan off my 486 (DX4-100MHz) because it didn't even get warm most
of the time.  It'd been like that for over a year and then when I tried to
compile a new kernel it kept failing with a sig 11.  It took me about a
week, several compilation attempts and several runs of memtest to remember
that it used to have a fan.

Not sure I had a point to that story.
