I'm pretty certain it was the switchboard for the PA system into the classrooms.
rOfL! Even better!
-Q
PS. Don't you hate PA usrs who don't know how to talk into them right?
You know whats funnier? At my school, when they call down to call for someone if they're being picked up early, the damn thing makes random beeps. They sound like censoring beeps. So they'll be like "Please send down <b>BEEP!</b> for an appointment." We're all like.... lmao.
Also odd, our principal tends to get on the PA and breathe into it. <b>Deeply</b>. Sometimes she will get on it during the middle of the day, all teachers will stop, she'll breathe into it for 30 seconds or so, and then get off. Then a few minutes she'll get back on, breathe into it for 10 or 15 seconds, and then make some announcement. Also, it seemed like all the time last year they were saying, "Please shutoff your computers, we're having a problem with the modem." The next day they'd be like "Oh, we called the people at Comcast or something like that. There are many a funny jokes from the P.A. that I won't release until June 12th (day after I graduate)! Stay tuned!
P.S.- The school I'm going to next year is supposed to have talking fire alarms! W00t! haha. Putting the "High Tech" into High Tech HS!

I had a PC that had a very werid case design. The back of the power supply didn't have a fan but it had one on the front side and had a tube that connected the the heatsink. It didn't suck in the cool air though the power supply. The fan pushed hot air into the powersupply. Damn thing would overheat so easyly. I took a 80mm fan and connected it to the outside of the powersupply and made it suck out hot air.
My 486DX2/66 is the hottest 486 you've ever seen. It has a case fan blowing right on the CPU and it has a heatsink too. the heatsink is still hot. The fan is actually needed becuase if its not connected to the mainboard, it wont turn on.
For a half of my life, from 1994 to 2000 I was using the follownig PC:
i486DX4-100/32Mb RAM/400Mb HDD/2Mb Video S3PCI/Sound ESS 1868 ISA/Modem Acorp 33K ISA

The PCU doesn't have its cover on, so the 8x8cm fan will cool the CPU as well.
