fwiw, we have a prototype cluster running redhat 7.0+ with a master node in a
http://www.pcpowercooling.com/ mid-tower using a supermicro 370DL3 m/b and four
http://www.evserv.com/ 1U rackmount cases (available in the us through
http://www.initiative-tech.com/) housing tyan 2510NG m/b's.  the evserv cases
are much nicer than others we evaluated but do not go to the extreme of the
supermicro server case with hot swap, etc.

up to 8 1U's can be hung vertically in a custom computer cart build from
http://www.8020.net/ extruded aluminum "tinker toys" with a 19" x 14"
footprint including a shelf at the bottom for the switches (fastether,
kvm, and power).

so far (a couple months) we've been happy...
