I have a couple of servers running 24/7 in the garage, here in Denver. Have
done for a couple of years now.

It's great when winter comes - it's cold in the garage, and the servers
don't mind at all. In fact they help provide a little warmth in there.

Any electronics are going to maintain a certain temperature by running,
computers especially. As long as there is no ice or water involved, I see no
problems with it.

Dealing with heat in summer is worse than the cold in winter.
