I've very little experience with computers in racks, but if the machines are actually touching, then yes, this could be the case. The 65 C temperature a previous poster was talking about is not the maximum operating temperature for the actual processor, it's the maximum temperature in the case while the computer is operating. As far as I know CPU temperatures are measured on the actual processor die, and the case temperature will normally be *much* lower.
