Actually the cooling seems smart. I think the ends of the cylinder are intakes and the back of the case has exhaust ports.

I believe this is actually a proof-of-concept.

I gotta believe that's just a concept rendering. I can't see Dell doing something that far out there.

I just noticed that one of the 'carts' has an ATI logo. If that's a video card, it would make that kind of thing very interesting
