- Well, our operating environment has temperature control consisting of
- whether the window is open or not. We haven't had any problems, even on
- quite hot days (high 30's, occasionally low 40's).
-
- On the other hand, one of our machines died in a bad way some years ago
- on a hot day when the air conditioner (our only one) in the room failed.
- It wasn't really a workstation - more of a server (a Sun 3/260).
