A quick blurb. 

As someone who wanted to be a particle physicist (before I switched to computer science), this is one of the most exciting customer win stories I've read as a Sun employee: Stanford Gets First BlackBox! If you're wondering what a BlackBox is, it's basically a full-fledged data center housed in a "standard" shipping container, or a mobile data center. The fact that it's housed in a shipping container means that a BlackBox can be deployed anywhere with power, water (for cooling) and network connections. More details about the BlackBox can be found here.

Here's hoping that SLAC's new BlackBox will help in the discovery of new physics and particles (Quarks were first discovered at SLAC)!
