Default G5 Marathon Horizontal Rackmount????????

So is the problem with the Marathon Horizontal Rackmount only with the liquid cooled G5's? I'm all gung-ho to chop up this dual 1.8GHz monster, but I just want to see if anyone has any experience with G5 horizontal mounting. I've just been sitting in on it's side for a while. DVD works fine.

Just seeing if anyone is using a G5 in this fashion.

Oh, and please don't hassle me about destroying the thing. It's a runner's porn-surfing-printing-stuff-out-soon-to-be-doorstop in 4 years.

Apple recomends that the G5 2.5 Not be laid on it's side.

Default Re: G5 Marathon Horizontal Rackmount????????

FYI: I have the vertical Horizon rack with side car, and my G 5 duel 2.0 , that gives me 5 other rack space to use. I filled mine 5 spaces with a rack mounted UPS system and soon will preplace with an expanion bay, so the height of the vertical marathon rack isn't lost space. I am so glad i didn't cut the rails off my g-5 like so many have done, not to mention the warrentee issues Apple voids!!
