Yeah, I just figured as the virtual space becomes the only expanding part of our universe the more computers (at peak 2 Gflops/W) you have the more powerful you become, specifically servers.
So you are right quantity will expand as much as the energy supply allows it to, but we are seeing the limits of energy so maybe don't invest too heavily in 200W machines?
I'm pretty deeply sunk cost in ARM and Atom servers, and I'm considering going "more in" but hesitating because of thermodynamics, basically 100W (including EVERYTHING, router, modem, switches etc.) is the most you can operate with enough lead-acid backup to survive power cuts before things get ugly!
