No it started when you posted the BS statement above.

It's the famous Trent two-step. Hope that the original comment is buried
too far down the thread for anyone to bother checking, then make a
completely erronous statement. One word: Weasel.


Did you check out the thread where he's explaining how on a modern network a
"server" is the machine that all the applications run on, the the "nodes"
are just dumb terminals so you want your fastest CPU on the server since
that's where the applications are all run! LOL


These recent threads have me thinking maybe Trent is overheating, needs
some AC.

I haven't read it. I try to avoid his posts, they make me upset, I don't
tolerate fools, especially when they are giving erronous advice to people
who may not know it's wrong.. It's only when he posts in a thread that I'm
interested in or where I think I can offer some useful advice that I see his
blather.

Such measures are applied in industrial installations (like in electricity
cabinets of large machines in a factory - where water sprinklers are not a
wise anti-flame option). In non electrical / non chemical environements
water sprinklers remotely and automaticly switched open (for EE guys, open
means there's a current of water) by a relay connected to the fire / heat
alarm. Im sure there are trip-switches that also disconnect elevators and
such when there's a building fire...


Seen a LOT of panels/Other for the Nuclear & PetroChem industry's (cant say
I ever seen any automated fire ext kit for a sole peice of electronics)..

In reality, If something is allowed to get hot enough to burn your house
through an electrical fault (dead short) then it means that the consumer
unit is not properly set up. Once a fire is started removing electricity
(for most things that we have) will not stop the fire. Normally IF there is
a fire you would combat the whole area and not just the specific fire point
of detection (speaking about automated fire systems here).

But I would need to wonder HOW his pc burning (probably have 5-10 fuses
before it gets to the power strip) will spread to other things in the house.

Metal (normally metal) cases generally dont burn well, nor does the things
inside of a case.

My suggestion, Get proper electrical wiring.

Electrical fault can also be an arc - which means there's an ongoing spark
and heat source. Generally speaking, most of electrical components are in
some way or another flame retraded (all PCBs have UL-94 V-0 marking),
electric outlets should be FR-HIPS or melamine, cables are (intrinsically)
flame retarded PVC etc...

Aluminum burns like hell(fire) ;-) steel (or copper) doesn't. Think about
airplane burning - it's not just the fuel, it's the whole fuselage.

Agreed. And standard components (UL, CE, TUV marks)
