[ale] consulting climate?

[Jeff Hubbs]

FWIW (for values of WIW ~????) I'm probably one of the few Gentoo Linux 
specialists in the Southeast. :) Right now for will-do-IT-for-food I'm 
mostly shopping around my ability to create Hadoop clusters - not those 
ancient-version Cloudera or Hortonworks deals but from a distribution 
downloaded straight from Apache. Used some bash-fu w/ PXE and 
chroot-originated Gentoo instances such that my clusters can 
automatically provision worker nodes. How big you want your cluster? 
/How much space/power/cooling you got??/
