The Phoronix guys have used the recent bout of cold weather to do something a bit unusual: a bit of overclocking . Neither of those activities are unusual in & of themselves, but using one to accomplish the other... now that's interesting!

"However, we took this opportunity to make the best of it with natural sub-zero overclocking. With the Abit AW9D i975X motherboard, an Intel Pentium 4 processor, 2GB of OCZ's Flex XLC PC2-9200 memory, and cooling provided by Mother Nature, we set off on a spontaneous overclocking adventure."
