I read the article posted on the above thread and laughed. Seems like those guys know nothing about compressors. Go with a 2 stage compressor a single stage will run hot and at warp speed trying to keep up. And as far as the cold goes it has nothing to do with the motor but merely the crankcase being cold and they sell heaters that plug into the oil plug hole for cheap. There is thread about this in the paint section of the forums. I work for the Quincy compressor distributor here in AZ so I know a little about compressors because I do it five days a week.
