Looking for a *QUIET* computer

Dell seems to acheive quiet through slow fans and higher temps of
everything inside the case.
This is especially true of their thinner case designs (Optiplex,
etc.), the outside becomes almost too hot to touch.
On the plus side, you could reheat a lunch by just leaving it near the
rear exhaust vent.
