The Atomic Super-cooled liquid PC
a completely submerged, fully functional, computer (power supply included!) cooled by a pump system with mineral oil and a little help from nitrogen pellets. The result? An incredible -61 degrees celcius inside the tank!

Most hard drives are only rated for +5-55 degrees C operating temp. Interesting variation on the OilPC though.
