Only problem is that these assets aren't really useful to a lot of people unless they happen to have a data center in which to run them. You could put a rack in your garage and run a little, but as you might have heard, these bastards eat a LOT of power. Most homes don't have the capacity for this, even most businesses would be pushing it.

I mean if they wanted to hurt the businesses who are buying it, they'd just have to throw the equipment in a pool or something.

    Nah, unless you have examples I don't really buy that. you definitely could make use of most of it with a minimal amount of resourcefulness.

    I think everyone understands these are specialized components, but even a slightly above average homelabber would go to town on it.
