Also needed but not yet sourced:
* Network cables (recommend Tiger Direct or Canada Computers)
'''Questions:'''
# Do we need another switch?
# Should we use the existing ATX power supply for both stacks, or buy a separate one for the new stack?
# What colours of cables should we use? Buy 5' again?
# Our existing numbering scheme is running out of numbers. Should we switch to groups of 10 machines? (i.e., cdot-guru-5-{0..9}?) Or change the way we map unit numbers to IP addresses?
# Do we need anything else? How about...
#* UPS capacity?
#* NICs?
#* Disks?
#* ???
'''Note:''' hex nuts, 0.25" nylon spacers, and heat-shrink tubing are left over from first PandaStack
