Industrial PCs are a breed of their own. Normally a generation or two behind but has TONS of IO.

I thought the board with the CPU and chipset mounted on the back was interesting. Never thought about ventilation on PCs in an industrial environment.

I get calls all the time about a machine that will work fine in the morning but not later in the day. Almost ever one of them calls was a dead CPU fan or shit caked on the cooler for the enclosure.
