Sun Microsystems' data center in a box makes its first Asian tour debut in Singapore today. Dubbed Project Blackbox, the portable data center makes a scheduled stopover in the island-state from Oct. 2 to 4, followed by a tour in four other cities in the Asia-Pacific region--Beijing, Tokyo, Seoul and Sydney--between Oct. 22 and Dec. 20, 2007.
