No. The System Saver is a square box the same dimesions
as the IIGS case except in height. It is about 1/3 the height
of the IIGS. On the bottom is weatherstripping foam that
surrounds an AC fan which draws 17 cubic feet of air a
minute. When sealed against the top of the IIGS, it pulls
air into the IIGS from the bottom vents, out the top vents,
and out the top of the System Saver case.
It also doubles as a 4-outlet surge protected power strip
with on/off switches on the front of the System Saver.
No more reaching back of the IIGS to turn on the power.
>Also, what would be a reasonable price to pay for such a product?
$10 to $15, maybe $20 depending on condition. Before
buying, listen to the fan. If it does not rattle, it is in good
condition and worth the higher price. If it rattles, the value
goes down, but you can buy it and recondition it yourself.
