Can be hard enough hiding 2 or 3 "unapproved" purchases. Imagine 70!

Oh no, no supercomputers here (although that might have been interesting to try, but I'm pretty sure my NVIDIA TK1 does a better job). Joke aside, they are for my graduate engineering school.

Yep. My girlfriend tends to get annoyed when I receive two or three boards to play with, so imagine her face when I received 70!

Apparently, they were used for a regional green code competition; run a Pi for as long as you can using efficient code. They expected up to 70 teams would compete. Now that the competition is over (and the founding company has changed hardware) they are being donated
