I've thought about doing this. I'm getting quite a collection of noisy machines (even though they're not always on) in the corner of my office. The real problem in the basement for me is the humidity level. Maybe a tiny window AC unit would help with that and cooling?<br>

</div>Can they be ducted, so the heat can be directed to warm the house<br>
(without also conducting too much noise)? I knew someone long ago who<br>
had an IBM 360-class machine in his basement, and I wondered how<br>
