Just curious, why the space between the 1U's?

Well if they don't have that many servers to fill up both racks, why would you put the 1U's right next to each other? the space allows for better cooling.

That would be an obvious conclusion, yes. Looking at the rest of the pictures in more depth, it doesn't look like space is an issue.

But, being a datacenter geek myself, I was hoping there is more science behind it than that. Say for instance, the power or heat density of modern hi-po 1U's is beyond the colo's abilities/design spec. Or the rails fit funny. Or they only included enough screws with the racks for 2U's. Or maybe it's a 5up3r 53cr3t ladder up to the celeron POS from Tiger Direct in the ceiling that actually powers the whole back end. ;-)

And, I got my scientific answer here:

"Thanks! We're using Sun X2200's, and the gap is entirely deliberate, it doesn't affect airflow so much (it does a little, but we have plenty of it). The gap is for two reasons; there's still a chance we'll be replacing at least some of x2200's with 2U boxes, and filling in the gaps with horizontal cable management (which will also kill the airflow problem!)."
