It's pretty damn hot where I am. I have my computer on all day, and the small AC meant to cool one room is "trying" to cool the the whole apartment with 4 rooms.
It would be pretty decent if I was close to the AC. But I'm not. I'm at the other end opposite to the AC. I am in the living room, and the AC is in the kitchen. In my case if you can't handle the heat, you want to stay in the kitchen instead of getting out of the kitchen :P
At least the AC is "cooling" the apartment in general. I know it would be a lot more hot and muggy if I didn't have an AC at all, and only relied on open windows on this 3rd floor apartment. Technology is good :)
