I'll just rent em when I need em. :-)

It was funny, tho. I read someone talking about all the "nosql" databases, 
and how people were complaining SQL doesn't "scale".  He said "SQL scales 
fine. What the people mean is that SQL doesn't scale if you want to use a 
commodity piece of hardware like Amazon rents. This is what we have in my 
office for testing:" and gives the stats on a 96-CPU 256G RAM SQL processor. 
He says "That's the low-end base machine for testing, not the production 
system."

    C# - a language whose greatest drawback
    is that its best implementation comes
    from a company that doesn't hate Microsoft.
