- hole in the wall and computer in the room next to you (seriously)

- or wait for intel to bring out those pentium-m cpu's for desktops

- Or, get a non-boxed 2.4-2.6 or so pentium 4 with your own fan and see if you can set the cpu fan to less than 1000 rpm in the bios. Like 800. Many cpu fans do over 2000 rpm and keep the cpu at an ice cold 30 degrees or so which is ridiculousl unless you want to keep that $200 cpu running for 30 years.

A P4 can handle 60 degrees on a daily basis. Then get a graphics card without fan (128 MB ATI SE for about $50 with DVI and no fan), and a psu with a silent 120 mm fan. The bigger the fan the slower it can run to move the same amount of air. Plus a silent case

- Or, get a Thinkpad R40 centrino notebook = ZERO noise

max 2 GB RAM, plus a dockingstation and a TFT
(or if you can afford it, a R50 = $4000+ but plus bluetooth, Wifi a/b/g and 128 instead of 32 MB graphics, plus DVD burner)
