Cool. Portable enough that they bring their own suds packed in dry ice.

Also I was pleased to see that they are using open/bsd with pf as the firewall.

Anyone else notice that a few of the captions were cut off at apostrophes in the strings?

A curious detail for a security-focused article....

I was expecting stats on network activity and got pictures of equipment and beer. Did I miss something?

Yep, you missed the point. Some of us are interested in the gear that makes everything tick.

There were also picture of some of the stats, such as the amount of data transmitted in 2 days.

Which wasn't technically saturated, since 100GB on a 20Mbit/s connection should be feasible in about 12 hours if my back-of-the-envelope math is right.

Of course, they weren't clear on details, so if they meant that the network was only up for half a day by the time they measured then it's significant.
