| 53442 | 2002-06-09 11:26:00 | I don't know of anywhere specifically specialising in quiet PCs. Just remember that *generally* the quieter a PC the hotter it will run. For a quiet PC make sure that the air flow is nice and clean (ie, not going through bad grills). JMM |

| 53443 | 2002-06-09 11:57:00 | it all depends on what you call low noise. most 1ghz intel pc's i would call low noise. to go even quieter you can get things like harddrive quietners, water cooling etc. tho i have to ask whats Speech Recognition got to do with it?? |

| 53444 | 2002-06-09 23:36:00 | Suggest you test the pc's out in the shop before you purchase i.e. only purchase once you are satisfied that it meets your quietness requirement (cos they probably won't take it back!). I like 'quiet' PC's - I have some SCSI hard drives and they are terribly noisy (annoying sort of noise). I have a older Dell which is very quiet but see above. |
