Hi Al- I'm in the Adirondacks of NY so we have even colder temps than you all in winter! I'd be leery of bringing in the cold, moist air- sounds like trouble to me. You'll end up with condensation somewhere & that'll be the end of it all (or at least, the beginning of problems not easily narrowed down & solved?). Why not just install a couple of 120mm fans, designed for PC's, into the side of the desk? All you need is a cheap hole saw & you could attach them right to the desk- sight unseen? Place one to blow over the hard drives & one over the memory/CPU. My two cents, Lynn Tracy ;^) Do you want to signoff PCBUILD or just change to Digest mode - visit our web site: http://freepctech.com/pcbuild.shtml
