Will they be able to put a little fridge in my beer jacket?

Sounds like good stuff, but if they're going to sell this to the computer industry, I'd suggest they avoid the term "micro-channel".
Computer overclockers have been doing this for years...no new whizz bang technology here...They're called Vapo-Chill rigs...
"Electronics for new weapons systems, as well as chips in future computers, will generate five to 10 times more heat than chips in conventional electronic products"
nope, Vcore is dropping as the procees decrease in size, most cpu's will feature multiple cores to run multiple threads simultaneously...
LOL, good call!
This "FRIGGED" technology has been known for years as the Hillary principle.
Hooray! We're finally on the way to the self-cooling beer can!

Gee, and when I saw the headline I thought it had something to do with providing poultry for our troops.
By the way, what are "Boilermakers" doing working on cooling devices? Isn't that kind of like Boeing making submarines?
Yea the Vcore is dropping a little bit but now you have to cool 2 chips instead of 1 with the same surface area.
Technology ping
I have a Vapochill and a newer unit. The newer unit cools my chip to minus 45 c. First time I've ever seen it mentioned in FR. ;)
The self-cooling beer can exists! Check this out:

Self-chilling beer can
British can expect to see cans that cool with a twist by summer
Apr 29, 2004 - A self-cooling beer can that chills beer to only a few degrees above freezing is headed for British retail shelves this summer.
Get ready for quad core then, it's coming soon..also check out the "Cell" CPU...
ehh "cell" is overhyped.
True, buat a lot more architectures will go that way, funny things is, arcade machines have used a similar architecture for years, once again...nothing new.
;)
yea, but the "buzz" that come out about "cell" was overhyped pipe dreams. I believe AMD will rule the nest for the next couple of years.
