As far as I remember there was a DC in New York (for some reason Globix springs to mind) that did this... It was really cool, apart from when it messed up and sent you to the wrong cabinet....

I sorta wonder why the default is lights on, actually...I used to

What we really need is a datacenter with lit floor tiles. ;)

John(damn I've been in a DC with clear floor tiles...why didn't I think
of
this then?)

There's at least one datacenter in Seattle that when the customer
"cards"
in, lights up the floor to their cabinet.... Been a while since I've
been in
it, but I remember it "USED" to do that.... (fisher, internap I think?)
