Apologies to interested parties but DSL is capped at 3GB in South Africa.

From this
Link it would seem that the supply from the flyback transformer is not rectified to DC. Unless you consider the voltage tripler as the rectifier?

In order to have the electrons flow with the radiator GROUNDED, you will have to produce a negative voltage (electrons). Otherwise you will produce current flow (and voltage) in the ground path and trip ground fault interrupters if you have them in your AC outlets, and confuse the crap out of the circuits (power supply, motherboards, etc.) that expect ground to be ground (~ 0V).

I dissagree:
A Potential Difference of 30KV is 30KV wether it's from - 15 KV to +15KV, or 0KV to +30KV, or 0KV to -30KV.
Wherever there is a PD there will be a current flow in a 'closed' circuit no matter the direction of electron flow.
Now if one of your conductors is through earth, to make sure of no PD between sensitive components, you still end up with electrons flowing around 'in a circle' with whatever is making the PD acting as a pump.
If you consider earth to be the 'negative wire', which happens to be earthed:

High voltage (actually any voltage) seeks the path of least resistance, not shortest distance.

so there wont be any current flow to anything at the same voltage (MB, PS, etc.) because ther is no PD between them.
While I agree with your statement above; in this case I was refering to the air gap between radiator and grill. Here the path of least resistance is also the shortest path.
Correct me if I'm wrong...
