The dog days of summer are upon us, so what better excuse for a quick distraction. Law Technology News asked 12 tech-savvy legal professionals, all members of our Editorial Advisory Board, what their next electronic purchase would be. Surprisingly, none of them said “air conditioner.”
1. Not all electronic devices produce heat. At least not where Orlando’s Adam Losey is concerned. The Foley & Lardner associate says that he’s looking to buy an aquarium computer from Puget Systems . The online store sells “do it yourself” kits for computer enthusiasts who wish to submerge their computers inside aquariums that pump mineral oil through an external radiator. The kits include a fish tank, a radiator, pumps, and a mounting device for your computer hardware. “We design these mostly as fun projects,” says Richard Millard, general manager at Puget Systems. “It’s unique look is the main feature, and it’s great ice breaker.” Millard says Puget has an aquarium computer in its front lobby, and it’s been running well for four-to-five years. “It’s pretty much all for aesthetics, although the oil does a good job of cooling,” says Losey. “I am a hobbyist computer builder so this is more a fun thing than anything else.”
