£365!!!?!?!

I get it, but when almost every hardware manufacturer (HP/Dell/Supermicro/Asrock rack/Intel AMT etc.) has a form of IPMI built in that's cheaper, how can they charge that much

Yeah not cheap but none of my hosts have IPMI.

Might be cheaper to buy new hosts

I wish! Two are 10 core Xeon workstation CPUs, for an upgrade I'd be looking for twice the core count, by the time I add on the board etc it would be well into 4 figures for both hosts.

I don’t know what this is but it looks like a MacGuffin from a Marvel movie.

It's a wireless microphone. Very good for the price.

I've got a set of DJI Mics, wonder how they compare... They look quite similar!

I'd be interested to see how these perform compared to the Rode and DJI equivelents. Ulanzi are like K&F Concepts, both Chinese manufacuterers that have come literally out of nowhere over the last couple of years and make pretty good quality gear! I have a K&F Concept camera bag that I really like and the quality is pretty good too for WAY less than half the price of a Lowepro or Peak designs equivelent!

Is the Ulanzi AM18 mic too good to be true?

Finally replaced my phone as the battery on the old 8 plus was getting a bit tiresome. (Plus no iOS 17) It’s one helluva upgrade.

New camera/printer.

Wanted/need a portable printer, wanted this before Italy but finally found stock on the Fuji site this week, Instax Mini printer, free camera as bonus.

Finally replaced my old Corsair fans. 9 fans meant 26 cables in total with a command pro, two rgb controllers and 2 cables per fan. Always annoyed me the absolute mess

So replaced them with some Lian Li fans. A total of 3 cables

£250 for fans stung a bit!

I’m also still on an 8 plus. What’s this and good deal?

It’s a 15 pro max. It wasn’t a good deal as there are no deals. It was depressingly expensive so I’m going to be keeping it for as long as possible. My parents bought me a new Apple Watch which required iOS 17 which forced me to upgrade. I wanted the telephoto camera so had to go for the pro model. The 15 plus would have been fine if it came with the telephoto camera instead of the ultra wide.

Any good? I've been eyeing up one of their hoodies, but I'd not heard of them before

Installed these for a customer recently, I have to say I was super impressed with the lack of cables needed.
Nicer looking LEDs as well somehow.
