Not true.
Even water cooled computers (water cooled just like an automobile) need AC. Small stuff like routers, servers, and switches need AC, too. The ideal ambient temp is approximately 72 degrees with the above raised floor humidity of about 45%. The humidity helps alleviate static electricity.

It was John Haller who suggested people make bumper stickers of it

When they start sweating their arses off they’ll need several hundred fans blowing hot air all over the place sucking juice anyway. Then they won’t be able to work because it’s too hot. Some will take sick days. They’ll be filing complaints to health and safety. Health and safety will have to undertake a study. The study will confirm it’s too hot. Air conditioning back.

But how can that be?

With all that AC off, the climate should be just right. It won't be too hot anymore. Right?

” Small stuff like routers, servers, and switches need AC, too.”

I walked to the back wall of my shop one day several years ago and was amazed by how hot the wall was. I looked up and saw the Linksys WRT54GL router turned repeater sitting there 3” or so from the wall covered in dust where it had sat for 5 years or so. The laser thermometer and the wall showed to be 126*.

I moved it a few feet away and it still sits there covered with dust. It does get brushed off when I have to reprogram it for a new router.

I worked in a large machine shop and we had lots of computers, it would be 90 degrees and more in there plus they would get plenty of grease and grime on them and they just kept on working.
