Hey Everyone,

I've been running into an issue within my office, dealing with heat, power, and space within my office.

Related to topic, Image to my current workspace: http://thewoe.com/images/personal/myspace.png

I am adding my 5th machine next week, and I am currently looking for suggestions on tables or stands to where i can do 3 across and 2 below, going across. However, i am also in need of Ideas to keep them cool in a small office, which is only 8 x 10 or so in dimensions.

Anyone run into a budget table/stand they could recommend, or even a good ideal setup for moving heat away from the computers?

thanks a bunch!

The fan you can see between the towers is the best thing ever. A few different companies make them but we've had great luck with Vornado ( http://www.vornado.com (http://www.vornado.com/) ) they don't even call them fans, they call them "Air Circulators" -- They shoot air in a column "up to 70 feet" -- We have two of them, one pushes air up from below through a hole in the bunk, the one you can see in the picture pushes air out of the door, and a fan sitting on my floor in the doorway blows cool air in... basically if I leave my door open, and turn the fans up, a ring of fans pushes cool air in and hot air out to the point my room ends up the coolest in the house.... This does not please the people we live with though... so they're usually turned down XD
