Positive pressure does the opposite . . .

Anybody ever see a cup of water in a vacuum? It boils, then freezes (if the pressure is pulled out fairly slow). Is there any way we could use vacuum's (not a Hoover, but a lack of matter in space) to cool our systems? Maybe put your radiater inside of an almost air-tight bubble and suck air out of it?

Actually, if a component in a vacuum heats up it has a terrible time getting rid of the heat. There's no air molecules to conduct the heat away. Only radiated heat is released.
Vacuums are already used in heat pipes to allow the fluid inside to boil and absorb heat at different temperature ranges.
