The biggest problem I have is getting a "computer
builder" to understand that "low noise" means barely
audible or less.

Agreed. And, that's possible at a reasonble price.

The convection cooled (fanless) power supply that I tried
on my latest DAW was a total failure.

Sounds interesting. What went wrong?

Laptops / notebooks are nice and quiet but they have
their own subset of problems... try plugging you favorite
audio card into them. I'm starting to hate the word
"legacy".

Trust me, laptops aren't a bowl of cherries, either. They all have fans, and
some of them are louder than my desktops.
