Based on what I've been learning about EMF shielding, the case in which
my Athlon64 is house is inadequate (too many grills insolated with bits
of plastic from the surounding case, aluminum instead of steel, etc).
I'm wondering about a SuperMicro case for the Athlon64. Does anyone
have any experience with them? Are they steel? Does steel back up any
plastic trim pieces? On hot-swap trays (in case I find a used one), is
there metal between the drive and the front latch handle? Is the drive
bay door metal or plastic?
Have you had good experince with SuperMicro?
Thanks,
Doug.
Please forgive my boldness and ignorance, but after watching this thread
for days now, I fail to get a sense of how it has anything to do with
Debian.
Having some experience with Rf, EMI and any other acronym you care to
apply to the physics of your problem, it appears that;
1. You've yet to find the exact root cause of your wife's discomfort.
2. You are, IMHO, trying to make a Cessna 150 fly like an F18.
3. You are trying to come up with a shade tree (backyard type) solution
to a government financed problem (think $$$ or €€€).
Analyzing the root cause.

But, I guess any disturbance I've had about Off-Topic posts has now been
negated by the fact that I've just contributed to one.
Short of living in an (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anechoic_chamber), I
can't see an easy solution to your desire for performance/useability,
and effectiveness, without some 'ching'. I do my best to stretch a
quarter into a dollar also. But, some solutions just take cash (or Visa,
if you
prefer:)).
Other problems may never find a solution. Can your wife shop a Wal-Mart
with their standardization on RFID tags? We live in a wireless world in
which data transmission (and soon power) via wireless devices has become
the standard. Add to this the fact that we are pumping more Megawatts
over High Tension transmission lines than ever before. Cell phones are
probably to surpass landlines in usage in the near future, The spectrum
gets more crowded (and valuable) every day. Makes it kind of tough on
sensitive humans, Canadian geese or earthworms.
