Chapter 3 - Computer Location

Scroll Prev Top Next More

Each individual must first decide upon an ideal location for the computer.  The computer should be positioned where it has at least eight to ten inches of clearance on all sides and on the top. The bottom and sides of the computer should not be obstructed because there are ventilation openings in the cabinet necessary for proper airflow.

 

If the computer is to be placed on a table, counter top, or in a cabinet, it should be located so that it cannot be easily bumped, jostled, or shifted. The easier it is to touch the computer, the more likely problems can occur. The computer should never be moved while it is on and running.  Certain models are able to stand in a vertical or tower configuration, which makes placement more versatile.
