I love clusters, and have designed a beowulf cluster for my college as a project. Just wondering if any of the devs have some pictures of the server room ^_^

As you walk in, through the white Double doors, the emptyness of the room strikes you at first.
Its walls are whitewashed brick, Its floor is white Rubber.
In the centre of the room, sitting on the floor, is a Wireless Bluetooth laptop.
Eve runs from here.
Sitting on the ground, polishing his Nerfbat, Tomb.
Huddled in the corner, surroudned by reams of paper with Sketches on them, Keiron.
Ovuer Is also here. He is Sitting next to the laptop, gazing as the eve server manager displays simple barcharts.
the door is locked.
It is a Sad Place.

You are lucky, I sneaked into their secret server room and took a quick picture. Sorry for the bad quality, it is a camera phone  Oh I think that was Tomb there yelling, couldn't tell.

I say they use geothermic power form a volcano that occassionally either destroys the equipment with a burst of lave, or is in fact dormant...

Yeah, I remember just after Exodus went live, there were server troubles, I went undercover, disguised as a zebra crossing in the heart of london, to infiltrate the CCP HQ and get a look at teh servers...
What I saw, scarred me for life.

Highlight the word you want to make a link, press the button that looks like a planet with a paper-clip next to it, input web-address.
Or use the [url="link" ]hyperlink[/url ] tags (but without the spaces).

These are some funny pics, but man I would love to see the actual real server room/s. Maybe CCP could pull out the digital cam and hook us up.

The pictures in this thread are going to be much more...interesting than the reality. IBM servers in racks. They'll all be black, because IBM thinks black never goes out of fashion. Oh, and they're right really - racks of black servers with a few green lights here and there do look pretty cool.
A lot of my company's kit is in the same building as CCP's stuff. It's a big place (I got lost and had to phone someone for directions the first time I went there) with most of the suites taken up by telecoms companies. We mostly have IBM hardware too: a mainframe plus we're steadily migrating the x345's to Blade Servers. Blades look pretty cool too, but a rack of them generates a crapload of heat.
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at stars.

I find it sad that only Verone pointed out that the servers are in London, nowhere near CCP.
