Before you set up your computer, it’s important to choose a
safe, convenient location that provides the following:
A sturdy desk or table strong enough to support the weight
of your system and all of its components.
A flat, hard surface. Soft surfaces like beds and carpeted
floors attract static electricity, which can erase data on your
disks, damage the computer’s circuitry, and prevent proper
ventilation.
Good air circulation. Leave several inches of space around
the computer so air can move freely.
Moderate environmental conditions. Select a cool, dry area
and protect your computer from extremes in temperature,
humidity, dust, and smoke. Avoid direct sunlight or any
other source of heat.
Appropriate power sources. Connect all your equipment to
the appropriate power source. (See “Power Source
Requirements” in Appendix D for more information.) You
need one outlet for the computer, one for the monitor, and
additional outlets for a printer and any other peripheral
devices.
No electromagnetic interference. Do not place your system
too close to any electrical device, such as a telephone, which
generates an electromagnetic field.
