400 computers at 100 watts per computer, would need 40 kw. Space 
requirement - you could put it in a double garage. Aircon requirements 
wouldn't be too bad, you could probably go with 20 kw to augment the 
natural cooling. 

Hmm... I got a cluster of 1100 Mac G5 systems across the hall.  Our
facilities people would certainly love it if they only took 100 watts
per computer.  Apple cites 400 watts per server.  And I think a Xeon
processor is 110 watts *all by itself*, not counting the optional stuff
like memory and disk.
