A few weeks ago in one of the trade mags there was an article
(California?) where the power company actually told a place that they
were at the limit for power usage and they would not let them add any
more servers PERIOD.
I regret not having saved the article now as it is extremely (albeit
off on a different issue per se) interesting IMO.

That'd be an interesting article to read. If you can recover the article
reference, that'd be great.  Even the Wall Street Journal has reported
on
this issue lately.

They are real factors (electricity, floor space, cooling), although the
impact will vary depending on your geography and circumstances.  Those
things aren't getting any cheaper, though.

Gentlemen,
I was talking about SINGLE box. You can have up to 2 timers connected to CPC. It shouldn't be compared to still growing bunch of PC-servers.
