I think this $50k number is way low unless you are talking bargain basement data center. Also, doesn't contemplate needed bandwidth. I agree with the expertise point, though.
Rough numbers:
Server = $5k, straight line depreciation over 3 years, 40 per rack
Switches = $6k, each, "", 2 per rack
Rack = $2k/month
Power = $2k/month
That works out to:
Servers: 40 * $138/server/month=$5555/month
Servers: 2 * $333/switch/month
Rent: $2000/rack/month
Power: $2000/rack/month
Total: $118,656/year
