Those RG351 (and "clones" of it, stolen schematics/resellers?) are pretty sick!

It’s crazy how convincing some fakes are. I’ve turned to only buying from brick-and-mortar stores, and only models of storage that I’m super familiar with and can spot counterfeits. The obvious downside there is that I lose out on tons of deals that way.
I feel like back in the early 2010s they were a much more hyped event, with loads of creators talking excitedly about going. Especially with heavy-hitters like Siglemic showing up.
Nowadays I feel like it’s become much more like a typical sports show, where lots of people watch but not much discussion happens.
The home office implications of this hardware are great. My home office has just $2500 in monitors and hardware to hook those monitors up to my computer - and an extra $700 in the standing desk. It's not that big of a stretch for this to be a common option among tech companies that typically grant their employees high-end equipment.
The sketches during WWDC where the guy took pictures of his kids with this on were... unsettling. But I don't think that's actually the target market or use case, just a possibility for use.
