I'll definitely have to second the nomination of the A2000 as a cool hot
weather machine.  Here in the South Jersey it's been drastically close to 
100F on and off for the past two months.  My A2000's been mainly on during
the same time period.  This is also a pretty full A2000, with 68020 board,
expansion memory, hard disk all inside.  And the computer room is not only
far beyond the read of any air conditioning, but also poorly ventilated to
begin with.  And it has yet to crash of it's own accord.  I'm keeping it
off these days while I'm not around, but only because of plea from my wife.
It seems the '2000 WAS doing a pretty good job of heating up the rest of
the house.
