Are there any 386 machines that can take heat and dust? I'm thinking of taking a machine back to Delhi, India where the maximum hits 45 C (114 F) occasionally and which is quite dusty. I've heard that dust does awful things to disk drives. Is that true? An air-conditioner would take care of both heat and dust, but is awfully expensive to run there because of the high cost of electricity. But on the other hand, I don't suppose I can afford a machine that comes up to MIL specs. Any comments welcome. shankar subramanian UC San Diego
