What to do with 40 unused servers? :) - GoFuckYourself.com

So what would you do with 40 unused dual Xeon servers? They are racked in the datacenter but doing nothing at the moment; leftovers from a client.
If you have a nice idea spam it or contact me. I'm open for something new

Until you come up with something, why not donate their computational power here:
https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/index.jsp

Helping out possibly curing cancer, dengue fever or similar can't be a bad thing. Better that than just having them sit totally unemployed, according to me at least.

Hey, if you're interested in putting up an enormous legal tube filled with some content that isn't everywhere on earth let me know how to get in touch with you. Videos would range from short to long and the site would be unique. It would also focus on a pretty damn good sponsor.

Cheers

Unrack them and donate them to a local school and replace them with better/newer hardware.

Or try to build a folding cluster/seti/relatedwhateveryoucanfind.

Thanks for all the reactions! It's really nice to see what could be done and to get some fresh ideas!

Thats a very good idea, I've looked at it as well and if I don't find a pupose for the servers quick I might do that.

I don't have any video's to encode. Would it perhaps be interesting to build a commercial video encoding farm so people can rent time on a cluster to encode video?
