:-) Yep, I suspect so; especially given that we've got free gas
so heat isn't a problem, just cooling, and the area which is being
cooled is going to be pretty small. Plus, the shop is really well
insulated, so the A/C wouldn't really have to fight against the
elements, just compensate for the heat generated by the computers
themselves.
