Our New Scale Cluster Arrives Tomorrow

All I could think when I heard "NEW TOYS!" was the line from Toy Story 3...

If we wait till Thursday to do everything we can do a full video (would be with my cell phone).
I think ML needs to invest in a GoPro.

I have one, Hero4 Black, they are super awesome but the ultra wide angle on them would mean you saw nothing of what they were unboxing. A good camcorder might make sense, but the Go Pro would be more of "show the surrounding office and all of the people standing around."

We have a decent point and shoot camera. It actually takes some amazing video.

I've got a Nikon AW100 with me in Nicaragua that does quite well.

My IPhone 6s+ takes great video (surprisingly). I have used it a few times for Gig's and not only is the video good but the sound on it is pretty good too.

Back I take it?

It just arrived too!! I was actually on the phone with Scale when the box arrived. So excited to have all of this lab capacity. This is going to be fun.
-
When do the rest of us get to play with it?
-
As the main office has too much work to do today and has a SpiceCorps to head out to in a little bit (its a few hours away) we won't be able to unbox today. However tomorrow morning we will do an unboxing video and then our team can start playing!
-
Take a box pic at least.

-
Only 2 of them? Hmm...
Bonus points for the Scale swag in the background, lol.
-
That swag has been there since SpiceWorld.

Definitely not for a week or two. Right now this is a hardware test in the NTG Offices in NY. It's not really for public consumption yet. I'm working with @Minion-Queen to look at the move to the enterprise colocation facility so that there can be more access to it in the near future.
-
Turns out the boxes were only the switches and cables. The main boxes are supposed to ship tomorrow so a couple of business days yet before things will be arriving.

The Scale cluster just arrived.

Well, there are the actual rails...
