  Heck, doing a cold start on our 3 server, 100 PC network can be a
bit tricky.  A datacenter that actually deserves the name?  I expect
that would be challenging indeed.  :)

  I would expect keeping at least one "old-fashioned server" DC around
would be a good idea.  No SAN, no virtualization, nothing other than a
few directly-attached disks and a RAID controller.  In a disaster
recovery situation, complexity is the enemy.  (But complexity is
relative, of course.)
