Update: Information and video on the Free Air Cooling PoC with Belgacom are here.

Yesterday I gave a talk at the Lan News datacenter seminar on "Hot spots to Coolthreads". The presentation files are on mediacast to download. 

Please also note if you are interested in these Coolthreads systems that Sun Belgium is launching a very interesting campaign for these systems, that includes -  under terms - Sun paying your electricity for those systems for a year ! Further details here.

We also showed a few copies of the very interesting Sun blueprint on "Modularity in datacenter design". To save a few trees you can download your copy of this 58 pages document here.

 Please explore other blueprints and content on wikis.sun.com, mediacast.sun.com and slx.sun.com.  They not only have a ton of useful information, but also show how Sun is about building communities these days.

h and if you were impressed, go to www.openoffice.org  to download your copy...
