Hmm, other than the inherent risk of a fire, that case actually provides excellent ventilation, so no more nasty CPU meltdowns!
The ventilation for a home office is nice, but for a data center it is horrible.

Real data-centers have floors that double as ventilators. They have...
Stacking a server on a box?
That would be horrible heat management, there's no suction of the heat away from the computer itself.

Not to mention fire hazards...
Not really, a computer wouldn't be able to get up to the temperatures to instantaneously ignite a box. It would of melted itself first.

I'm talking about faulty hardware. We're dealing with electricity. And a stray spark or two can ignite a box.

Lol... the datacentre looks messy...
Messy? That isn't even the beginning of it.
