Please note - this is a new posting of this article. For those of you who viewed and/or commented on the original - sorry, but we had to delete it. Our servers were overloaded with all of the diggs on the story. The 900+ members online at the same time figure you saw on the front page is correct. We had to pull the article and are working on a few different solutions. For now, this is a repost.
Some interesting comments that arose about the project.
1. Many people believe that different sound waves or types have different effects. I tend to think this may be the case. That is, while the fans of one console may generate noise, it is a more pleasant (or at least tolerable) noise than a spinning DVD.
2. Some people commented that the orientation of the console may have an effect on the noise generated by the console. That is, they have found that place the 360 and the PS3 vertical as opposed to horizontal resulted in less noise from each.
3. Some people have commented that the Wii is loud initially while loading up a game, but once loaded the console makes no further noise. While we've been trying to address the additional database hits I haven't had a chance to double check this one yet.
Thanks everyone for reading!
