[ale] cpu underclocking

[Dow Hurst]

i would imagine that lowering the voltage would increase the current. 
 Brownouts can destroy compressors and such.  Are the amps so low that 
the voltage drops don't matter?

speaking of quiet power supplies, tomshardware.com has a nice writeup on 
testing a lot of power supplies in 300 watt range for quality.  Several 
were very quiet and reliable.
