When you want solid information on a subject you go to the experts not the guy trying to sell ad time.

The processors will be faster and more powerful tomorrow than they are today in the same way that processors today are faster and more powerful than they were last year (Moore’s Law) … It doesn’t change the fact that they need power, cooling, network and maintenance.

If data centers go Cramer’s route and replace their entire fleets with the newest technology in 1/8 the space (nevermind that the 8 different customers on the 8 legacy servers all wanted their own server), they’ll see higher average revenue per unit, won’t have to spend capital on new facilities as quickly and will be able to streamline the management of those servers.

You have to say one thing for him, though: He knows how to get people talking.
