+The late majority needs nothing to change. Early adopters move on to systems where the “new stuff” is available.

+Had a great morning at [[DWebYVR]] coworking.
+
+We ended up on the top floor of the VPL Central Library and had a bunch of interesting discussions that you can find on the [notes page](https://dwebyvr.org/wiki/February_5th,_2024_Coworking).

+Next in the tiny hardware series: I bought an ASUS [[MiniPC PL63]]. It was on sale, and I wanted a machine that sits at my desk with modern ports.

+[“Wherever you get your podcasts” is a radical statement, Anil Dash](https://anildash.com/2024/02/06/wherever-you-get-podcasts/):
+
+> “being able to say, "wherever you get your podcasts" is a _radical statement_. Because what it represents is the triumph of exactly the kind of technology that's supposed to be impossible: open, empowering tech that's not owned by any one company, that _can't_ be controlled by any one company, and that allows people to have ownership over their work and their relationship with their audience.”
+
+I’m looking for more radical statements.

+## Unbox and Setup
+
+Why is this box so big??? Oh, it comes with a keyboard and mouse. 
+
+This thing is tiny! Smaller and lighter than the [[Lenovo M900 Tiny]].
+
+This is the Thunderbolt 4 model. I plugged it into my [[VisionTek VT2900]] and it worked right away.
+
+First time on Windows 11. I sure am declining a lot of things. Lots of updates and rebooting.
