• Been there, done that, got the T-shirt...  at previous work-place, the aircon in the server room failed one evening.  The first time our support guy noticed was the next morning, when she walked into the server room and thought "it's a bit warm in here". 

    Took us a long time to figure out all the extra damage afterwards -- a lot of machines were less stable afterwards, and it often turned out to be down to a component suffering some heat damage.  Indeed, one riser card was found to be "welded" to the motherboard several months later (after we'd replaced just about everything else on that server...)
