new equip storage

I have purchased new top line equipment for a new house that is set back many months. The problem is that I live in Buffalo,NY and we recently were hit with a storm and flooding. I saved the equipment but have no room in my present house for storage. Can I store the equipment in my new home that is being built, as long as it is in a dry dust free area that has no heat. Because of construction and what has happpened here, Heat will not be installed until Feb (worst senerio). Will it be ok in the cold as long as it is dry and clean? Are there temp limits?
ETC,etc

We are talking about amps, pre-amps, turntable, dvd, monster surge protector units, 63" TV, speakers, about @ $30m.

Million? Thousand?

Brings up a pet peeve....

I can't understand why media always denote millions- let's say $30,000,000 - as $30M.

M is one thousand. MM is 1000 x 1000 or 1 million. So really, $30,000,000 should be annotated as $30MM. $30,000 should be $30M.

So, who came up with the now accepted single M to denote a million when describing currency, etc?- and can I get a bag of what they were smoking?
