My old Zenith ZW-241 came with the fan blowing from the power supply, across
the cards, and out the front.  I thought it made more sense to keep the cards
rather than the power supply as cool as possible, so I reversed the fan.  I
am the original owner of this computer, and I've had no problems with it (I'm
using it to write this).
