    As usual, retrieving/restoring data will be more expensive than storing it. ;-)

    RAM so fast it time traveled! I think you meant today on February 25. ;-)

    I'd love a 192GB kit, but apparently only Corsair seems to be doing that lately.

    That is good, I have used Provantage as well quite often, but didn't search for SKUs there when B&H and others didn't say they had vPro I guess.

    That's good to know, where did you find those specific SKUs mentioning vPro Enterprise? Strangely, B&H isn't aware, even though they sell them and they are in stock.

    I'm not here to argue, merely to share my experience buying many Intel and Asus NUCs. It was easy to get specific SKUs from Intel, it is not from Asus. Asus lists models, but they cover many SKUs, and getting specific SKUs is difficult from their website and documentation (even your datasheet)...

    Can't find SKUs that specifically mention it anywhere, and the ones we did buy in that model lineup that were supposed to have it based on CPU and NIC did not have it enabled at all, nor could Asus provide a BIOS update that did. Didn't bother returning them as that application didn't require...

    I miss vPro Enterprise on NUCs for remote management and full KVM. Intel used to do it, but Asus seems to have dropped that functionality since they took over.

    News ASRock Z890 mobos boast innovations like DDR5-10133+ support and 10x USB-C ports

    I get that, but I'd expect Intel to say the CPU can also support more when it is eventually available. I guess Intel and Asus are just being more conservative and don't want to promise it will work without testing.

    News ASRock Z890 mobos boast innovations like DDR5-10133+ support and 10x USB-C ports

    ASRock says 256GB maximum memory, but Intel ARK says 192GB maximum memory for those CPUs. MSI makes the same claim, but Asus sticks with 192GB max for their Z890 boards.

    News Office 2024 is now available for purchase at $149 — Office Home & Business 2024 will set you back $249

    Might want to mention that Publisher is gone in 2024 compared to previous versions. I don't think it's in new installs of Office 365 anymore either though.

    News 3D printer maker Bambu Lab faces patent infringement lawsuits that could threaten hobbyist 3D printing in general

    They always come from a small town in East Texas. Austin Meyer of X-Plane was sued by a patent troll for simply putting an app in the Google App Store for Androids. Someone owns a patent on using app stores essentially, and they sue people that use them, not the companies like Apple or Google or...
