They're not exactly cheap.

Nice! Should be Talos with one L, though.

Man, if they weren’t so crazy expensive, I’d be really excited. Part of it is nostalgia for the weird old days of exotic architecture Unix systems.

As I think about it though, there’s no way I’d have ever paid for an SGI, Sun, RS/6k, Alpha (well, maybe Alpha) system back in the day. Those were also crazy expensive.

The hope is for it to become more popular and trigger economies of scale and become affordable to common joes.
