My Home Lab Hardware -- See What I'm Running

In this video, I'll take you on a tour of my home lab, go over the hardware and discuss how some of the gear has been used in creating tutorial videos over the past couple of years for this channel. SPOILER ALERT: the hardware I run is not overly impressive. Almost all of it has been purchased used/won from eBay auctions and kept on a tight budget.
