    Cherry ML4100 with ML switches. Picked it up today in a random bunch of other keyboards for $15. Like the way it feels, but need to get used to the spacing of the keys, lol. It's a bit like the reds on my K70 but with a bit of feedback on engagement and require a bit more force. 
     
    It's an older model though, has the DIN connector with ps2 adapter. So tiny next to the K70.

    The Pinebook arrived yesterday. Will be writing a full review over the next month or so, but so far it's pretty much met my expectations. Was pleasantly surprised to find out they upgraded the 11.6" model with a 1920x1080 FHD panel (from the previous spec 1366x768). From the reviews I've read about this model before, it was a worthy update to the product. Glad I waited until now to order one.

    Bought these recently, MD+ arrived just yesterday. Really astounding for the price considering I haven’t ran it off a proper source yet.

    Yeah but 24 zen processors would cost, at a bare minimum if you count the recently unveiled Athlon 200GE,  $1,320, and if we want some thicc CPUs like this one, we could work with the 1900x which I've found a few for around $300, so let's be generous and put all 24 at $299, we'd be talking around $7,176 for 192 cores, which is exactly how many these Opterons have, albeit I'm pretty sure two 1900x would outperform 24 Opteron 6128s.
    Now, I've also seen a few EPYC 7601's running around for $999, which means I could walk around with 768 cores for a mere $23,976
    But what if we want to have 768 cores while still being able to sort of game and also completely obliterate Cinebench? Well whipping out $41,999.76($45,464.74 with tax) would net us 24 Threadripper 2990wx's.

    By the way I spent $54.00 for these, free shipping. For not even the price of a single dual core, locked, Athlon 200GE I got a bunch of nearly useless processes I can rub my face against all day. Also as soon as I buy some old tape reel hard drives I'll get those puppies posted here to further contribute to this thread as I've become far too sidetracked.

    I just liked this picture of these old Opterons so I thought I'd throw them here in hopes to allow them to achieve some form of glory in their aging ways.

    Apple’s £999 iPhone X is ‘enormously UNDERPRICED’, says Warren Buffet
     
    In a new interview, the World's third richest man said Apple could easily get away with charging a lot more for its indispensable gadget, which Buffet values more than his private jet.
    Warren Buffet owns around $56billion (£43billion) in Apple shares
      Well, we have good news Mr. Buffet – Apple could well ratchet up the cost of its newiPhone XS as it releases a separate budget device for everyone who doesn't want to drop a grand on a smartphone.
    The trillion-dollar company will unveil its trio of new smartphones on September 12.
      Apple had the four best-selling phones in the world at the start of this year, with the iPhone X at the top of the heap, according to analysts
    Buffet, whose net worth is an estimated $86.7billion (£67.2billion), is the second-largest stockholder in the tech giant through his holding company Berkshire Hathaway, which also owns stakes in Heinz, Coca-Cola and American Express.
    Therefore it's no wonder he wants Apple to charge more for its best-selling product.
