Well if you have a mini, your valley is green, so I'll skip to the next question.

How hot does that little bugger get?

I'd like to get one and, despite how cute it is, stuff it into the (closed) CPU closet on the side of my desk. I'm worried about toasting the thing.

I figure the fact it is meant to hold a full size tower should work to my advantage. I can also pop an extra hole or two in the back of the desk.

Any feedback would be appriciated, especially whether the air coming out of the mini is hot or cool.

Thanks!

I don't know how hot it gets, but keep in mind that Hardware Monitor should work with the Mini, and it will tell you how hot it gets.
