IMO, if we pull all 30A it is going to be unbearably hot
in there. Remember, other than a Watt or two of light out
of a monitor, all that is turned into heat. That's equiv
to 7 electic bar heaters, then there's all the body heat
of the visitors on top.

Although it may not be considered authentic, I would
strongly urge the use of LCD displays where possible
as CRTs will probably be the main heat source.

The other thing is that as we approach the trip current,
it is possible that something being switched on will
cause a surge tripping the whole lot out, something that
I'm sure people running fileservers will not enjoy!
