- What resulting condensation? Condensation occurs when Air with a considerable
- Amount of Humidity is COOLED DOWN, thus losing partially its Ability to con-
- tain Vapor. When you move Air to a Place which is HOTTER, it would actually
- dry this Place up. Exception: The Air is cooled down again, e. g. when it hits
- the Computers' Cover. Using COLD Air would even help in this, since there
- normally is no Water inside of Computers :-) and the Cover would have to
- cool the Air at least to below its initial Temperature to cause condensation.
