Heretofore refered to as the Devil's work, at least when it came to power consumption, blade servers are getting a green face lift recently. Specifically, HP has come out with some new integration technologies on their blades servers that reduce TCO. Some of these technologies include more energy efficient disks, better management tools, and improved cooling flowthrough. Worth a look, I'm not sure it can compete with full blown virtualization though.
