Shamelessly derivative.

Now, from BorgCo - a drinks cooler that fits in a 19" rack.

Has USB and Ethernet connections for status monitoring.

Holds an entire 24-can slab of half-litre beer cans.

Anonymous, undistinguished brushed-aluminium front panel with a couple of small status LEDs and a 4 x 4 keypad for entering the access code.

Beer not included.

       Why would someone want to cool beer?

       In order to render tinned lager almost drinkable.

       // Why would someone want to drink lager? //   

       Because by 0345, all the Tippex is gone from the stationary cupboard, the whiteboard cleaning fluid has been scoffed, and desperation is setting in.   

       [zen_tom], you're hired.

       The single large keg probably has the edge in terms of access time. The RAID approach is more spill-tolerant, in that the most you can ever lose is one canfull, whereas if the spigot on the keg fails, you could lose the lot.

       5 minutes sounds like a reasonable lease time. High end units will implement Tuborg Carlsberg Protocol/Internet Party and Draught Heineken Cask Protocol.
