iPhone server rack an exercise in network storage indulgence

Here's one way to get yourself noticed. Japanese developer FreeBit, in looking for a way to show off its Serversman iPhone app, has debuted a prototype ultra-small server rack. Perfect for when you happen to have up to five iPhones / iPod touches lying around and nothing better to do but turn them into overpriced network storage solutions -- then again, if you're rocking five of Apple's touchscreens, there's a good chance money isn't your biggest concern.

Anyone care to decipher that website it links to?

I didn't think so.....

I spent a good half an hour trying to read right to left, down to up, standing on my head and starting from the top, running past my computer at lightning speed and I also turned my monitor off in sequences that reference prime numbers....

I did understand this on the page:

"Nifty piece of crap to store your overpriced Apple product; goes perfect with an open flame and gasoline."

The only thing this is serving is entertainment when it goes kaboom!
