the displays? I know that the lcd on my cell phone doesn't respond after being left in my car during the Minnesota winter, which gets as cold. Are CRT's acceptable in this cold environment?
A suggestion - what if you made your server rack in an old deep freezer or refridgerator (not plugged in)? I know my deep freezer gets somewhere around that temp, and the outside DOESN'T feel cool to the touch. I assume that it the heat generated from the electronics would keep itself around typical room temp or higher, and you would have a nice sealed access door.
