Beside the freezer ;-))

But to give something that really helps - don't screw the hard-disks to the 
casing helps the most, i let it lay freely on kork plates, www.7volts.org 
tells you how to silent your fans.

The beamer can be more difficult - if it overheats the LCD will melt or the 
light bulb will go out. BTW, i wonder if it is possible to use a more cheap 
standard halo-bulb from a still-frame-projector by gluing in the original 
reflector using heat-resisting cement.

Thought to switch over to beamer-screen completly - something about 1280x1024 
(the Eiki VC1 would do) - it should have then and therefore the light-bulb 
might turn out an expensive part...

The problem is those things still cost around 7000 Euro (twice the price of a 
normal one) - maybe we should make an collect order and buy directly in 
Taiwan or where they come from ;-)
