jfweaver,

Yes, for sure, I do understand that.

But what is obviously of most interest to me is what is coming out of the other end of the cascade systems.

I mean when you have an extreme system that is able to force a CPU to ungodly-low temperatures, it means that the same cascade technology could be used to extract heat from air that is only partially warmer than ungodly-low temperatures.

Same tech. The Extreme guys are interested in the cold end, we're interested in the hot end. Same tech.
