[Cialug] computers in unusual conditions

[Lee]

One thing I forgot to mention. Temperature won't kill that PC as fast as
condensation. If this facility isn't climate controlled you could end up
with condensation inside the case.

I'm curious if anyone on the list has deployed computers into abnormal
situations.
e.g. A PC for data collection in an unheated/non-cooled building in Iowa
where the year round
      ambient temp range is dramatic.

I know you can buy 'rugged' equipment that will handle such extremes, but
in this case I'm already looking at using a hand-me-down PII 500 which is
more than sufficient for the task.
