The world inside my computer is not Germany. It is electronics.

It is electronics which is highly dependent on conditions outside of the
box. Thus why you often see ambient temperature range given within the
specification of many electronic equipment manufactures.

And the environmental temperature depends on how much wind flows.

And the temperature within the computer depends on how much cooling the surface
and eventual fans can provide.

Sounds reasonable to me. Unfortunately I have never seen the wind chill
factor listed within the hardware specifications. Although you can't
argue against success. As many Asus EeePC 701/702 users have
disconnected their netbook fans. And so far I haven't heard of one EeePC
failing yet.

I thought we agreed to wait 4 years to see if it was a success... ;)
