Those fans! Those darn fans! Seems like the weakest link in the
whole machinery! You should be happy that your VAX' blowers still
work, I have 3 dead ones out of 6, thats a chance of 50%. I hope
that Brian's blowers work.
AFAIH, the TU81 does produce some heat, so I would not try to
run it without blower. But it's good to know that Mr. KLESI will
mess up the fun if no drive is attached, so I don't bother getting
one before I have a TU81 drive.
