I go back to 1963 when I was a computer repairman in the USAF. We had an
elevated floor and the air would flow from bottom to top through the
cabinets holding the motherboards and babyboards. Each cabinet was about 6
feet high and 30 inches wide. There were two rows of maybe ten or fifteen
cabinets. We had a total of TWO computers. We were not on the base, we were
located in a mountain so as to be bomb proof. These computers were state of
the art at the time. <G>
