Computer Hobbyist,

You are correct, Apple did make the Power Mac G4 Cube so that it has no fans. Many people like it simply for the reason, because you can do your work without the constant buzzing of the CPU fan. I recently saw mention of IBM working on "optical" CPUs that are much faster than current CPUs and perhaps those CPUs won't even require any cooling at all. But you're right, for now we do still need cooling but I'm sure we can come up with something better than a fan.
