The Sound of Computing Silence

Published: | Posted By:

Many enthusiasts are not bothered by the sounds of computing and the ole office just isn't the same when the systems are off. Though a select few would rather not hear the computer at all which has thus started a silent PC movement.
" But recently, PCs have started to become noisier again as they become more powerful.
