I've got a Danby portable type dual hose unit which works very well for my office. The single hose units are really no good for getting a room cool as they continually pull in outside air. It's pretty quiet, a lot quieter than the cheaper no-name unit it replaced. 12000BTU - it does really need it's own 15A/120V circuit because of the size.

Mine sits in two racks in my second bedroom. Cooled by ambient AC.
I have an old pdp-8 rack (I didn't get the actual computer, just the rack, but it does still have the DEC faceplate), and the room is cooled by the regular central A/C. I've considered dedicated A/C for this room (just a small spare bedroom really), but I haven't found anything that is economical and quiet.
