[CUBE] Geforce4 mx

[Michael Blossom]

Seth,

Thanks for posting!  Congrats on being the first -- I may now follow 
your lead and give it a go myself.

About the mods:  How did you remove a "3mmx3mm section out of the 
corner of the cube"?

About the heat issue:  How do you know the 4MX is running cool, just 
checking with your hand over the chimney, or something more scientific?

And are you running two monitors off of it, or only one?

- Mike
