Let Your Computer Acclimate Itself
Although your computer system can easily stand temperature extremes, it
doesn’t much like rapid changes in temperature, especially going from a
cold front stoop to a warm and comfy office, or from a steamy jungle mail
drop to an air-conditioned villa. Rapid changes in temperature can cause
condensation inside your case. If it is hot or cold outside when you receive
your system, let the computer gradually adjust to room
temperature before you plug it in.
When you first receive your computer you will certainly be
eager to get it going and start putting it to work, but be patient.
Take the time to let it grow accustomed to its new environment.
Keep the Box
It's a good idea to keep your Meridian’s box and packing materials. That
way, if you ever have to store the system or return it, your components
will be well-protected.
