Something else I forgot to mention at PLUG N. A while ago my Mini9 started making a "white static" noise. I couldn't figure it out--solid state electronics just don't make noise like that and the thing has only SSD, no hard drive, no fan. Turns out something (I suspect either an update or me being an idiot) turned "Mic Boost" all the way up. I finally realized the noise was actually coming from the speakers, poked around, found that and turned it off. Now, not only is the machine silent again, but it's running significantly cooler. Wow...
