Its been this way for about three or four months now. Sooo much easier to tear into, AND she stays nice and cool! I started out with the intention of doing some kind of case mod. But decided , "why not just leave it out where I can get at everything quickly?"
The huge fan on the hard drive case keeps 'em nice and cool too!

I'm surprised no one's mentioned submerging your computer in liquid: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=aquarium+computer+case

I haven't measured the temps yet but, the hard drives stay super cool to the touch. The huge fan mounted to the case helps that.

Are yo refering to the submerged pc? if so, they use mineral oil which doesn't conduct electricity.

If you are talking about mine, I try not to touch it while it's on. However, I have a few times with no issues.
