The CPUs are to be "rack mounted", and I'd like to know if anyone has done/thought of this. I would like to know if anyone has had any experience with simply moving a CPU about 75'-100' from the monitor and the wonderful things I can expect to happen from this; as well as any opinions on a rack design for the CPUs.
