(Lots of company offices use IKEA furniture. IKEA has had
a separate department for this since well over a decade.
If that's not good enough for you, why bother with Wikipedia,
when you can use a "real" encyclopedia instead?)

The point was that when I needed the toolserver, it didn't
provide the space I needed (in this case 160 GB), so I had
to use my own server, which uses cheap SATA disks. I was able
to complete my task, but not with the help of the toolserver.
This means others can't build on my work and people without
a server of their own will fail to complete such a project.
The idea behind the toolserver was not met by the actual
implementation in this case. It doesn't matter if it's
gold plated, if it can't be used.
