Also, it doesn't exclude the option of a day job + the $114 you get "for free" once you've set up the farm.

As far as I understood from the article, this thing is not set up and forget affair, it requires maintenance. I imagine if you leave it and some cooler breaks, it could very well cause a fire or melt down completely.

Not really. If one cooler breaks, the card shuts off on its own.
