I'm considering buying a Koala Mini. I want to have it in my living room, so the noise level is important, but I can't seem to find any mention of it anywhere.
How noisy is a Koala Mini? Would you have it in your living room?

It's quiet. It has one cpu fan in it, basically a laptop fan. But it's buried beneath the hard drive and dvd drive, which I think muffles the sound somewhat.
I don't really have any metrics on it, unfortunately. But unless you're super sensitive to sound, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Any Koala 76-ers out there that can chime in on this one?
