This is pretty cool. I can't help but wonder how this could be applied if it was scaled up...
NEAT!
I want one.
I do also. The biggest power drain in my subnotebook (and one of the biggest in other computers) is the cooling fan.
Actually wait. I want a really big one, so big that I can use it as part of a hovercraft.

You've got it 8)
What was the weight to power ratio?
Not that we probably know...
It's more efficient (they say), than a mechanical fan. Depending on how the corona effect functions would determine scaling it up though.

How else will I create a permanent typhoon to hide my floating stronghold?
