It really is a mobile data center...

"With Blackbox, you feed it, chill it with water, and it just does stuff for you," explains Anil Gadre, Sun's chief marketing officer

Interesting concept for quick deployment.

There are lot's of applications for this...
1. A company that is starting up a new HQ and needs to hit the ground running
2. Google (applications should be self-evident there) in new countries
3. Webcast of the Olympics

etc...

Oh no my friend...having one of these ripped off is the nightmare.

A 24 camera production studio control room, a full edit suite, a huge audio mixing room, slow mo/replay room, and production/writing room with multple computing systems for the various databases...all in HDTV. Not something to leave the keys in the ignition on...oh yeah, did I forget the optional microwave relay transmitter on the roof?
