    I love how his specs were so outrageous back then but are just becoming normal now

    • flat screen monitor 40 inches wide - you can easily get one now
    • every file inspected, no viruses detected - EDR is a thing now which is constantly watching for malicious activity
    • it does all my work without me even asking - automation is definitely a thing now
    • got me a T1 line at my house - we’re well beyond 1.5Mbit to the home now lol

        I got a couple of those on order. Always nice to have a few high mem nodes in the compute cluster.

        That’s the one that stood out to me the most. Those are available now, but only in a four stick configuration.

        Some servers do already. And not just business class either, I know of a few Plex servers that are running on 256 GB RAM disks
