Back in the day (20 years ago) when I was "the IT guy" at my company and we just used a big tower as our Novell file server - I added a pair of SCSI RAID controllers to drive a "huge" RAID system (1Gb if I recall). The server overheated about every 4 hours, so while we looked for a "permanent" solution I took the tower's cover off and bought a $20 table fan to cool it.
We never found that "permanent" solution and the server ran naked with a cheap table fan running 24/7/365 for over two years.
Good times!

He bitched when I tossed a 10 year old Compaq portable (one of the old suitcase sized models with the 8" monochrome display - 8088 CPU, 640k, 10Mb HD).

I think I've worked for the same guy. Twice.
Mind you, it can have benefits, because it forces you to be creative -- but there are limits.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is

What, God can't even make hinges?
What a cr@ppy god.

Yup, and when they closed automatically, you had to move fast, or they'd have your fingers off.
