Facebook May Make Tiny Town a Data Center Mecca

[Daniel]

"Just weeks after the opening of a Facebook data center in Prineville, Oregon, local officials say two more companies may build server farms in the small town. Facebook has touted Prineville as an ideal environment for using fresh air to cool servers. The news positions Prineville (pop. 10,000, unemployment rate 17 percent) to emerge as a data center hub similar to Quincy, Washington, a small farm town that now hosts five huge server farms."

I think it's best for them not to reveal their exact DC location, if they don't want it nuked.

As I said in CB, I really do not understand what or how you can get "Racist" from his comment..

Anyways, carry on.
