Looking for some tropical tech guidance.
We're looking to set up an RBN node in equatorial West Africa.. The
station owner is agreeable, but cautions that conditions in the shack
are such that computers don't like it - >95 percent humidity, >90
degree temps, etc.
Lenovo advertises that its M73 "tiny" form factor PCs are good for
protracted operation at >95 percent humidity and up to 60C ambient
temperature, and are mil-spec certified at these levels. Sounds good,
but what's the real world experience?
