  • We called them “luggables”. They’re expensive, but having a server in a box with a monitor was worth it when you could lug it to a customer site and give a live demo of your server stuff. We were doing telephony stuff and you could put a $5000 dialogic pcie card in it and demonstrate call handling live. We can do that with software on a standard issue laptop these days, but the luggable helped seal the deal back in 2005.

    There’s a whole world of culinary delight waiting for you when you realize that dairy isn’t the only flavor! I became severely lactose intolerant a long time ago. It was sad at first, but after trying a variety of Indian, Chinese, Korean, and other Asian dishes, I found it to be a lot more enjoyable. There’s so much more to life than using mountains of cheese and rivers of gravy to make something taste good.
