Dim 9100

Do the side openings on the Dim 9100 mean I have to provide side
clearance? If so, how much? I want to stand the 9100 on the floor
against one side of my desk's kneehole.

I would recommend against that location, as you
will find that immense amounts of dirt will find
their way inside.

I have had my old tower there for 5 years with no problems.

I wouldn't put it right up against a wall. Just move it out a
little bit, like 2" or so.

It has both front and side vents on the bezel. It should do fine in the
situation you describe.
