I cannot but affirm watching the size of my cpu cooler grow. Every now and
then motherboard of modern pc's will tear because of the weight of the cooler
(which costs as much as the cpu) :-)

Isn't it actually just a problem of mass? The bigger the chip the more power
it draws... make it smaller, make it cooler... or am I talking out of my neck
again? :)
