Make your computer near silent: - Zalman or similar CPU coolers, no fan = silent - Graphics card with no fan = silent - fanless PSU = silent - Samsung Spinpoint HDs = very quiet - Zalman HD coolers/vibration dampers - Acoustically damped case Spend £100 for good effect, and three times that for a PC you hardly notice. Plus most of the stuff survives upgrades. I do this, on a Win XP machine that is on 24/7. It's generally up for more than a week at a time. Relying on the computer may not be so bad!
