Probably the best bet is to put it into a completely sealed box and then put a sun shade over it. If you want to keep it up there for while, the elements will kill it eventually if there is ventilation as condensation, rain, sand, ice, bugs, dust etc will get inside. I am not sure the thermals on the laptop, but this is how we have had the most luck with using indoor gear outside, even when we pass the recommended temps.

Anyone know the best approach to shield this laptop from the elements? (ie, rain and heat). I live in los Angeles so it doesn't rain that much, although I'm concerned the summer heat might cook the laptop. Any ideas? I'm thinking about putting it in a cooler of some sort, but I'm not sure if there's enough ventilation. I'm also concerned about rain. _____ Sneak preview the all-new <http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=40762/*http:/www.yahoo.com/preview> Yahoo.com. It's not radically different. Just radically better. _______________________________________________ Talk mailing list [email protected] http://seattlewireless.net/mailman/listinfo/talk
