The specifications for an IBM e-server X230 I have:
Operating conditions:
Temperature:	10-35 Celcius (50-95F)
Altitude:		0-6000 ft altitude
Humidity:		8-80% Relative Humidity

Of course these are the IBM specs. but should be similar for other
hardware.
Extreme temperatures or condensing humidity may be a problem.
