Thnis just doesn't make sence:

Goodson's experiments have produced a flow rate of 200 millilitres per minute. Keane says this would be enough to cool chips that radiate 120 watts of heat per square centimetre, with hotspots of up to 500 watts. In comparison, Intel's Centrino chip dissipates 35 watts.
200 milliliter = 0.0528344 gallon [US, liquid] That's 3.170064 gallons per hour!

And what is this Centrino BS? That is a mobile P4 is it not? 35watts? The regular P4 is like 80watts. I don't understand how they think they can cool a CPU with 3GPH. And there theory about how heat doubles every 18months with CPU's is very incorrect. The T-Bird 1400 (1400mhz) runs much hotter than a XP1700+ (1470mhz). If that was true the Barton 3200 would not be coolable without super water cooling.

Nothing adds up in that article...
