[A higher voltage rating, by the way, does not always mean greater robustness. If the capacitor is used in a way that ESR is important (an example is C1 in the original compacts), then the heat generated by the dissipation there can matter much more than the risk of dielectric breakdown. It ain't so simple.]

That's why I've got a Kensington System Saver cooling fan for the Plus, Tomlee (and the fact that I don't keep it on for more than an hour). But that is interesting to note, nevertheless.
