Does Not Slice or Dice.]]> Following in the spirit of PCs cooled by submerging their electro guts in oil, Sc4freak over at Hard OCP's forums took an aluminum tray, filled it with 12 liters of canola oil, and dropped in an old Pentium II 266 with Nvidia Riva TNT2 Ultra. Nothing a geek ain't see before.

Then he played Quake III booted up on Windows 98. But the dude got hungry, so he decided to install an electric heater, julienne some potatoes, and make some deep-fried french fries.
