Total isolation is also interesting for some high-security applications.

I Tweeted to them and suggested that they offer -- at a possibly much higher price point -- a physically isolated server that must be manually provisioned by a human being. Any access would require multi-factor authentication followed by the actual dispatch of a person to retrieve the device.

This would be interesting for things like CA master signing servers, etc.
