Jason,
Between systems the VA has donated to the LinuxKB and sytems my company
has purchased from VA (about 60 computers total). One thing I can say is
that they're all very high quality and well engineered. I've never had a
problem that was heat related (actually I'm not sure I've ever had a
problem with them). I would highly recommend any product from VA based on
my experiance.
