There's a question. QuietPC will sell me about a dozen different
models of fan in any size I use. Each model quotes a random different
subset of speed, noise output, airflow, and MTBF. Any idea how I
choose beyond going for the third cheapest? 

I'd not mind a "I put a Wazco 3000D in my machine in 1998 and it
hasn't blown up yet" anecdote, even...
