the problem with beo (or the machine it's hosted on) is that is looks like a
full height tower - the guts would have to be transplanted to a smaller
machine (and the number of disks inside might prohibit that), otherwise
trying to get a full height tower into a rack would be prohibitively
expensive.

Also, even if you got a good rack deal, I think you'd still be looking at
rather prohibitive bandwidth costs in a colo - 80-90 gig in colo doesn't
usually come cheap!
