    Probably any fan that would be used would have to be a low volume unit,  I'm sure one could be found - for a price.

    Is this the good model or the lemon?

    Gotta LOVE this site! Saw this post and I had just ordered this model from Amazon for $177 last Sat. (8/30).  NOW it's listed on their sight for $159! Since it hadn't shipped yet (still processing the order?), I could cancel the order, which I did.  As soon as I got the confirmation email that...
