Looking at the CAD drawings - is there any reason why the nodes are built into
circular columns, rather than traditional cuboid boxes?
If anything such a design does not make full use of the physical space
available.
And if you did pack the columns as drawn (with vertical water pipes in the
gaps) - how do you service the nodes to replace failed components, water leaks
et al. ?
And also (I do work for an interconnect company after all) how would all this
get wired up together as a cluster?
Awww com on, don't yo believe in fluffware? I say he goes full wifi :P

Sadly it looks like that's based on the single precision
