There is a pull out in some Sun desk side systems that has about 9 fans
on it. A system that size would sell for very little on eBay because with
it's size and weight, shipping would be significant, hence very low bidding.
Buy one and ask that they pull the fan modules, if they will, and viola,
perhaps
a lot of used fans for a pretty low price.
