Okay, okay, I've gone posting-crazy today.  This must be my 5th
posting in 24 hours.  I'm trying to cut down.

My question/problem/peev is the fan in my 2000.  I miss the nice, quiet
fan of my old 1000, and especially the non-fan of my C64.  My current
configuration is a 2000 with 2 3.5" drives, bridgecard with 5.25" and
external 3.5" drive.  I would like to put a resistor on the fan motor
to slow it down, or disconnect it altogether.  I know it isn't as loud
as most PC-clone fans, but it is annoying when I am doing my musical
applications.  I want to know if turning down the fan will cook any
important components, or any unimportant ones (like the bridgecard :)

Thanks in advance, and from now on I'll try not to crowd the newsgroup.
