Yes, but a real CRAC (computer room air conditioner) will actually keep the humidity at a higher level (say, 40 to 50 % RH). Very dry environments lead to lots of static, which is also very bad for computers. The humidity control is one of the key differences between a CRAC and standard AC. We have the standard AC in our little server room, and I can confirm that we do get tons of static during the winter. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
