COULD it have flown? Yes, actually. In fact you could tell it was TRYING, but didn't have enough speed. They would have to repair it first, before they could use a bigger motor. COULD it have flown?

They tried to match what they saw in the show. It didn't work, obviously, so the myth is STILL busted. They wanted to do what Macgyver did. They tried to match what they saw in the show.

It would make it safer to overclock the processor (forcing it to run at speeds higher than it was rated for) by keeping it cool. Simple explanation: Extreme heat can kill a processor. The more you overclock it, the hotter it gets. Keeping the processor cool by putting the computer in a refrigerator would help. However, you're still shortening the life expectancy of the processor.

The controversy seems to center on two facts. White reflects heat from the sun but does not release heat from the body as black does. So in a soccer practice, would I be more comfortable wearing black or white tee shirt. I once met a construction worker who was wearing a sweat shirt ( I forget the color) in the middle of summer. He said he was very hot until he got a good sweat going but was then cool the rest of the day. Myth or Fact: Wearing a white shirt will keep you cooler than a black shirt on a hot sunny day.
