> $50/month at 40U rentable is $2000/rack/month if it's full.

And then there's the newer high-density rackmount units
like this one http://www.rlx.com/products/serverblades/dense.php
This product puts up to 24 server blades in a 3U chassis
which basically means you can put 8 times as many servers
in a rack.

And if any of you have played with things like the 
Zaurus C760/C860 then you know where all this is headed.
$50/month today, $25/month in a year or two, and then
in about 5 years it will be a free perk if you sign 
a two-year contract with your broadband provider.
