Damn, you are really stocking up with parts for those boxesused this to pickup 2 extra 90W power adapters for my HP T620 PLUS thin clients...
well, it's my main router for everything and every one in the house. without internet access, I can't get work done (consultant), the kids can't do homework (websites the schools use), and the wife can't watch Buddha on Netflix (happy wife, happy life?). so, yeah, it's worth having spares.Damn, you are really stocking up with parts for those boxes
I hear you, I have pfSense running in a VM and no matter when I take it down for maintenance someone is going to complain.

i grew up without the internet and was introduced to it a lot later since I grew up outside the US. i still remember what that was like and when mobile phones were only for the wealthy, and people still used libraries. some times i miss the simpler life... but for now, i need spare power supplies for this most vital piece of electronics that glues my home and family to the rest of the world.
