Running Computers Cold - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

Not too sure, but I remember reading an article about the IBM PS/2 model 25,
and how they had to sit and come to room temperature after being moved or
something would fry....

  Okay, this is the first time I've ever had to
worry about this.  When is it
 to cold to run a computer?  It's 35F out in the garage, and it is supposed
 to get a lot colder tonight.  I just shut the dehumidifier down (to cold to
 run it) and setup a heater near the computers (and other stuff I don't want
 to freeze).
