       How to be very classy, very demure when deploying your compute: don't be loud, don't be noisy with old fashioned rackmount servers, be mindful of the people working there. Very understated, very efficient.

       @oxidecomputer Quick question: do y'all give ballpark cost estimates? I find myself saying, "My personal inclination would be to just go spend $X on 1000 Oxide Racks instead of migrating to AWS" and I constantly feel annoyed at myself for not having a clue whether typical racks are $500K or $5M each 😂If y'all are willing, I'd love to know:(a) How much would a 100% CPU rack cost?(b) How much would a 100% disk rack cost, and how many individual disks and PB would that be?

       @zellyn Customers need/want to operate on-prem for a variety of reasons. If your monthly EC2 spend is $40k+/month for persistent workloads Oxide is proving to be a very compelling alternative!
