Sun's Project Blackbox (26 Comments) (link)
 Wednesday, 18-October-2006  17:19:57 (GMT +10) - by Agg

Shaun spotted this cool new product from Sun: Project Blackbox. It's a portable, self-contained datacentre that, when fully loaded, would rank among the world's top 200 supercomputers.

Lots more pics here. Interestingly, it seems to rely on watercooling (like an old-school "real" datacentre :) ) with water in and water out, and heat-exchangers inside the unit. They have some theoretical scenarios for the datacentre-in-a-box, too.
