	Does anyone have a way to measure actual heat output of the iMac G5 and Mac Mini? We have need of putting some small computers in a small, yet well ventilated closet. Although we've got good ventilation, we don't want to overload the system and make things too hot. So we're looking at the iMac G5 and the Mac Mini as possibilities since both are engineered - from what I can tell - for low heat and noise output. But Apple's tech specs don't tell me how how the units can get or how much hot air the units push out. I would love to get this kind of info.
