As much as the club seems to enjoy tearing down and pissing on the work of
others, the machine room currently keeps water and heat out (the roof leaks,
remember), allows a vaguely secure network for internal machines (jack in
to the black cable running around the room for fr333333 tr at ffic!), and
provides a large (vaguely) secure space for numerous objects. Turning the big
lockable box in to many small lockable boxes is silly -- the other space
around the room isn't even used effectively.
