Contract
(Redirected from Blade)
My dual workstation 'contract' and 'condition' is just something I'm dreaming about. I have other computers.
This case houses two computers. The main computer (E-ATX) is 'contract', it will run Debian 12 (bookworm) on the ORANGE subnet. The auxiliary computer (Mini-ITX) is 'condition', it will run Windows 11 Pro on the RED subnet.
Now I just need a cool forty two grand.
