No, but it's an interesting machine.

I'm so far dealing with two servers (four cores, 8 GByte RAM)/
1 U. This would mean some 80 servers/rack, 320 Atom cores/rack,
640 GByte RAM and some 80 TByte disk in a single rack.

I agree that currently I/O contention is the biggest problem
in a multi-guest server, assuming you can keep out the CPU and
memory hogs.
