What a great idea, and when I say great, I mean smart.  Servers generate a lot of heat, but need to stay cold in order to keep operating correctly. If you're going to build a server farm, why not build it somewhere really cold and not use a lot of power just to keep the temperature down?  It's good for business, and it's good for the environment.  Let's hope people continue to make smart decisions like this.
