I did do this a couple of years ago, and while it was useful, it did not
totally solve the issue. I managed to find the manufacturer (Nidec), who
confirmed they no longer sold any fans of that size (80 x 80 x 15 mm).
The fan ID was H34612-55 Also marked on the fan was 9127V, 12 V, 0.18 A.

I'm led to believe the "original" fan moved 0.97 m^3/min,

The replacement I bought back in 2004 was 1.6 W (~133 mA), 31.5
m^2/hour (~0.525 m^3/min), clearly moves little more than half the air
of the original one.

Still, the ones from Farnell look a bit more hopeful. I'll buy a couple,
as experience is telling me they will not last long.
