Yeah, I'm only using them in IIgs's. Even then, the way the louvers are
angled, the exhaust air blows towards the intake side. I noticed when I put
a monitor on top, that the air gets blown over towards the intake and pulled
back in. I put a paper barrier under the monitor to deflect the exhaust,
which helped some.  The IIgs just wasn't designed with cooling in mind...
